My Dr. put me on an antibiotic for a bacterial infection. Can I take a probiotic (good bacteria) while I'm on the antibiotic, or should I wait until I finish them to take the probiotic? Thank you
There is a common confusion that one should wait until they are finished with the antibiotic to start the good bacteria. Even though the antibiotic is killing the good bacteria, that is exactly when you need it the most. So I would triple the dose, as it will tend to prevent the common diarrhea complication many have with the antibiotic.
