Well, it sounds like your doctor really wants you to take the antibiotics. Are you really sure you have too? If so, then you definitely,.... I'll say it again,... definitely have to take probiotics at the same time. They are the opposite of antibiotics. Antibiotics kill all bacteria, bad and good. which leads to yeast overgrowth. Thereby, causing many yeast overgrowth symptoms. So, the probiotics put the good bacteria back in your gut and restore your bowel flora. However, be sure you buy a reputable brand (usually need to be refrigerated), and wait until 2 hours after your antibiotic dose before you take the probiotics. There should be at least a 2 hour wait. And don't let anyone tell you to wait until your antibiotic therapy is over before you take probiotics. My opinion, you're asking for trouble if you don't take the probiotics at the same time...at least 2 hours apart. Take care. Keep in touch with your procedure.
