Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG

Safety profile

5 studies reporting safety data1 serious adverse event

Across 5 clinical studies reporting safety data on Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, no specific adverse events were found to be significantly increased compared to control. Two findings showed no significant difference between LGG and placebo for events such as bacterial cholangitis and death (serious adverse events were flagged in one study but not attributable to the supplement). In 5 studies, the probiotic was generally described as well tolerated or unquantified in terms of safety, with no reports of increased risk.

Caveats: Evidence base is limited to a small number of studies; absence of reported adverse events does not establish safety. Most studies were not primarily designed to assess safety, so rare or long-term adverse events may not be captured.
