Guest guest Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Thanks, Sheila! He is getting Amox. 3X/Day (1st thing, mid-day, bedtime at = time intervals) I have been giving probiotics 3 hours after 1st and 2nd dose of Amox. and Diflucan (50 mg) around dinnertime (It is only 1 dose/day) Should I give Sacc B. with the P.M. Dose of Amox., or is that overkill? I thought maybe the Diflucan will cause his body to have to deal with the die-off of the Sacc B. in addition to everything else. Then again, with the antifungal only being once/day, I feel like maybe the Sacc B could be preventing a daily flare-up if timed right. Opinions are appreciated! Thanks! MS mom of Nick adge 5 ASD SCD almost 2 mos. (We better not have that regression now or I will lose it!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you take diflucan in the evening once/day taking S. boulardii earlier in the day may help. You could start with half a dose and work up.
