I'm not sure what kind you mean. I needed the probiotics to ward off
certain kinds of fungal infections. Might those be the suppositories that
you mean? If so they are mostly OTC now but I was hoping not to need them.
Now they advise us to take high doses of probitoics while taking
antibiotics. As in 2-3 times the amount that you'd take daily otherwise.
Doesn't always work though. Especially if you are on super strong
antibiotics.
