Probiotics: Probiotics should not cause mucus in the stool. If that situation arises, you should stop the probiotic and see your doctor or a gastroenterologist to identify the cause of the mucus. Good luck.

Loose stools and significant white mucus in stool after starting to take magnesium citrate (150mg, 1 x daily) and probiotic (50bn cfu 1 x daily). Used to be constipated (6 months). Had fecal calprotectin test 4 months ago and was negative. IBS?
