In fact, they might be sufficient to deal with your problem. (Digestive enzymes are another thing that helps, but wait until done with the course of antibiotics to give that a try.) Just don't take them at the same time; a window of time of about 2 hrs between pro and anti-biotics...to allow both to absorb fully. Yogurt does NOT have enough bacteria in it when you are taking antibiotics, which kill off GOOD AND BAD bacteria EQUALLY and does not distinguish between the two. (Can result in diarrhea, etc.) Get a good brand that requires refrigeration. The best is NATREN or Dr Ohhira's (both pricey), but there are lots of good ones. A middle-brand (not cheap but not the price of THOSE) is Udo's brand. (various varieties) GOOD LUCK! :) (/herbalist) If you’ll pardon hippie grandma’s interference… take some probiotics with your antibiotics! In fact, they might be sufficient to deal with your problem.

Sorry about the rain. I shook the darn stick too hard... So I'm sitting here and bashing a few trolls on another site and suddenly I hear the tap turned on while a meeting is going on. *ugh* Means that a two hour meeting will be stretched -- I was stuck waiting for dinner until 11:00pm... *whine* *Whine* *moan* Huggles hon -- when the monsoon hits, its great for the desert, but *ever* so sucky for us... (can you say sticky....) Ugh.

*ugh* Means that a two hour meeting will be stretched — I was stuck waiting for dinner until 11:00pm…

*whine* *Whine* *moan*

Huggles hon — when the monsoon hits, its great for the desert, but *ever* so sucky for us…
