Can acidophilus and antibiotics be taken together?!
Question:
Can acidophilus and antibiotics be taken together?
Is it okay to take acidophilus and antibiotics together?
The acidophilus bottle says to not take them within 2 hours of each other.
However, I was just wondering whether or not it's a good idea to have both in general.
What about foods and such that contain acidophilus and other probiotics (such as yogurt)?
Any insight would be appreciated. =)
Answers:
Yes. Infact, they should be taken while you're on antibiotics. This will help prevent you from getting a yeast infection and from having a reasction to the antibiotic that will cause severe diarrhea.
