Probiotics & Antibiotics

TE MarieMember

I want to apologize to anyone I might have steered in the wrong direction about taking VSL#3DS with antibiotics.

I thought I read somewhere to take probiotics 3-4 hours in-between antibiotics. That's what I've done in the past as I thought that's what I read. I was WRONG. Jan questioned me about it before, as well as some of you others.

I decided to read the package insert for VSL#3DS today before mixing it in my fruit smoothie. Under "Drug Interactions" it reads as follows:

Avoid taking with antibiotics. Some antibiotics may inactivate certain strains of bacterium in VSL#3DS.

I'm having serious doubts about eating Greek Yogurt as well.

I'm sorry and it's probably contributed to me needing antibiotics longer than would have been necessary in the past.

I hope none of you are upset with me. I have brain fog at times and this proves it.
