Could Nubiotix Have Caused These Side Effects?

Hi, I took Nubiotix Probiotic Digestive Formula for two days. On Tuesday (the first day), everything was fine, but on Wednesday night (the second day), I started to have gas, nausea, stomach pain, and dark brown stools. Could this be from the Nubiotix? How long is this expected to last?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Nubiotix contains probiotic strains, digestive enzymes, natural herbal ingredients, and vitamin B complex. Probiotics' safety has not been thoroughly studied scientifically. Probiotics side effects are usually mild and gastrointestinal such as gas or bloating, nausea, change in stool consistency etc as in your case. These side effects usually vanish on discontinuation of probiotics usually in days. More serious effects have been seen in some people. Probiotics might theoretically cause infections that need to be treated with antibiotics, especially in people with underlying health conditions. You have not written your health problems and why you are taking Nubiotix.
Advice
1.     Stop using Nubiotix as it is causing side effects
2.     Take natural food rich in probiotics such as yogurt, high-quality dark chocolate, and green pickle
3.     In further complications, consult your doctor
Thanks!!
