The ingredient list for this Reuteri chewable is mannitol, xylitol, lactulose, mono- & diglycerides, malic acid, natural lemon flavor, zein (corn protein), and riboflavin phosphate.

The three ingredients mannitol, xylitol and lactulose as know to cause D even in non-IBS individuals. These ingredients are usually only found in chewable tablets to make them taste sweeter and more palatable.

Perhaps it would be wise to make sure your probiotic does not contain these ingredients.
