Re: Correction - Drinking Kefir While Taking Antibiotic?

[Guest guest]

Rhonda,

Not only CAN you but you definitely SHOULD be drinking your kefir.

The main thing is to take it about 3 to 4 hours after you take your

medicine. At that point, it's pretty much been absorbed and the kefir

will not be affected. Drinking kefir while on antibiotics will

definitely help avoid yeast secondary infections.

I started on Septra July 3rd after vaginal hysterectomy.

~~~Too late I fear. I itch now and have another 4 days of

antibiotics to take. I think it was on another list that I read to

lay off the kefir until *after* the round of antibiotics. But I can't

remember why. But you're saying that as long as I give the Septra a

few hours to do it's thing, then the kefir can still do it's magic

and help with the yeast. I guess I should have gone with my gut (pun

intended) feeling and as soon as I got home from the hospital got

back on the kefir.

Hopefully, it'll be strong enough to counter the die-off of the good

bacteria.

Makes you wonder about all these people who didn't have a strong gut

to begin with.

Thanks,

Rhonda
