A question about acidophillus!?!
Question: A question about acidophillus!.?
I am taking antibiotics for a ear infection. I think I am getting a yeast infection because of it.I was told to take acidophillus to help put back the good bacteria my body needs.Does this work and if so do I take it while I'm taking the antibiotics or after i'm finished.?And does it help my immune system.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Take it while on the antibiotics, and continue for a week after.
I take it daily to boost my immune system, as the floral balance in the gut can easily be thrown off by the foods we eat, stress, and environmental factors.
It's harmless, and whatever is not used by the body will just pass through your system.Health Question & Answer

Take it while you are on the antibiotics and for a couple of days after you finish. It does work in some cases, usually for people who get gut infections after using antibiotics (the drugs kill all the good bacteria and bad bacteria move in and cause problems). I don't know how effective it will be for a yeast infection but its worth a try certainly. It has no effects on the immune system directly, but the gut bacteria it replaces do make the immune system's job easier.Health Question & Answer
It's great I take 1 capsule every morning. I think you can still take it while you're on antibiotics.Health Question & Answer
