Safer Medical of MT

What Safer Medical of MT does

Safer Medical of Montana, doing business as Prescript Assist, is a privately held nutraceutical manufacturer headquartered in Fort Benton, Montana (51-100 employees). The company formulates, manufactures, and sells soil-based / spore-forming probiotic (SBP) supplements and adjacent nutraceuticals under a portfolio of trademarked brands, including the flagship Prescript-Assist® SBO Probiotic (Original Formula and standard variants), PA-Light® (a lighter formulation for adults and children), Tas-α™, Pet Flora® (animal health), and Breakfast for the Brain® (cognitive support in capsule and nano-spray formats). A claimed differentiator is that Prescript-Assist® is the only probiotic with published medical studies on the entire finished product, and production occurs at an NSF-certified, FDA-registered facility in Montana.

The business model is a hybrid direct-to-consumer and small-scale wholesale operation. Retail consumers purchase through the Shopify-powered prescript-assist.com storefront at unit prices ranging from $34.95 to $69 per bottle and $150 for a VST Crash Kit bundle, with 12-piece case packs priced $210-$354, all on a pay-as-you-go basis with no subscription contract described in the source. A wholesale collection requires re-registration of existing accounts and serves retail resellers, while a physical retail shop channel supplements online sales. The company is also the dedicated manufacturing and clinical product partner to VST (Veterans Success Team), a veterans' health organization, donating product for distribution through its free veteran membership program under a 'Wellness with a Mission' positioning.

The company has operated for over 20 years and reports cumulative sales of 'millions' of units, anchored by an individual consumer base seeking alternative probiotic options for digestive and gut-health concerns, supplemented by healthcare professionals who recommend the brand and a pet-owner segment. Marketing is predominantly digital-first: Instagram and Facebook organic social, content marketing around the published clinical studies, email/newsletter capture for promotions, and a published testimonial library on the website. No revenue, funding, headcount-trend, or ownership data is disclosed in the source material.
