No, New Chapter’s “live active culture” probiotics are designed to be shelf-stable in their growth medium and deliver the labeled potency of probiotic species for the life of the product. Given that the viability of probiotics is most influenced by light and moisture, for best results you may wish to store opened products in the refrigerator or another dark, dry place.
