PharmExtracta^® was born from the experience of professionals in the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical sector who share a great passion for scientific innovation and aim at finding new solutions for human health, in line with most recent discoveries. 

From the beginning of the project our R&D team developed and marketed more than 70 formulations, backed up by more than 40 patents, and published more than 200 peer-reviewed scientific studies confirming the scientific rationales behind products.

Starting from 2010s PharmExtracta^® is particularly focused on launching new effective probiotics under the range called PrecisionBacterial Care.

In 2011 we were the first company in Europe to develop and launch Bactoblis^®, a finished product containing the well-known Streptococcus salivarius K12, the first probiotic for the oral cavity that now boasts numerous studies all over the world.

Bactoblis^® was then awarded at the Nutraingredients Awards as Finished Product of the Year in the category “Immune Support” in 2015.

More recently, in 2021, our probiotic formulation Crispact^®, containing Lactobacillus crispatus M247 for women’s health, was selected asfinalist in CPhI Pharma Awards in the category “Excellence in Pharma: Finished Formulation”.

Our cornerstones of probiotics

When it comes to probiotics, PharmExtracta^® chooses only well-characterized strains deposited in strain collections recognised as “International Depositary Authority” (IDA).

Before becoming PharmExtracta^®’s products strains must prove

• to be 100% safe for human consumption
• not to confer antibiotic resistance
• to survive stomach and bile acids
• to adhere to epithelial cells of the target area

Moreover, our finished products are designed to maintain bacterial strains live and viable using

• high-dose probiotic contents
• specific packaging solutions
• proper storage conditions

We strongly believe in precision probiotics able to provide specific health benefits. In this view, we launched several single-strain formulations that can be effectively used in the clinical practice.

The greatest strength of our products is their effectiveness that is validated clinical trials.
