This study is a single-blind, placebo-lead in design examining the safety and tolerability of a probiotic, Bacillus subtilis MB40. Subjects received a 7-day placebo BID lead-in and a 21-day BID course of Bacillus subtilis MB40. GI questionnaires and Bristol stool charts along with evaluation of any medically significant changes, based on physical examination findings, clinical laboratory tests and vital signs assessments were used to determine the safety and tolerability of MB40.
