You MUST take a course of strong probiotics in conjunction with the antibiotics...it would be a good idea to start them now, a few days before to top up your 'good bacteria' and get them ready for the onslaught of the antibiotics. KEEP taking them after the course of antibiotics finish....I only took mine for the ten days I was on antibiotics and I got such terrible diarrhea as soon as I stopped them. It would be a good idea to continue taking them anyway, as they can help some people with ibs. I take Jarrodophilus EPS twice a day and I think it is helping me...another good brand is VSL#3.
Good luck!!
Oh if you are prone to diarrhea on antibiotics you may also consider sticking to a very simple binding diet (white bread, applesauce, bananas, white rice etc) whilst you are on them to combat any possible d!!
