VSL 3 Lite Capsule belongs to the group of medicines called probiotics used to treat and prevent ulcerative colitis and irritable bowel syndrome. An irritable bowel syndrome is a group of intestinal symptoms that occur together. Ulcerative colitis is the inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. VSL 3 Lite Capsule promotes the health of the intestine, balances the gut flora, increases gut immunity, and supports a balanced inflammatory response.
VSL 3 Lite Capsule contains live freeze-dried lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria. These stick against the inner layer of the digestive tract and form a barrier.

Lactic acid bacteria creates an acidic environment that is unfavourable for pathogen growth. Thereby, VSL 3 Lite Capsule helps treat irritable bowel disease and ulcerative colitis.
