Can TruFlora® help reduce Antibiotic-Associated diarrhea?
Yes. Broad spectrum antibiotics cause diarrhea in up to 25% of patients because they kill beneficial microorganisms in addition to the targeted disease causing organisms. If the patient does not replace the beneficial flora with probiotics diarrhea may become chronic. TruFlora® can be taken during antibiotic therapy but always allow at least 3 hours separation between the antibiotic dose and the probiotic dose. After completing the antibiotic therapy continue taking TruFlora® at one or two capsules daily for 30 days.
