Yes! It is possible to take Optibac Probiotic For Those on Antibiotics Capsules and any other Probiotics in the Optibac range with antibiotics.

This theory is still believed by some but Optibac Probiotics strongly suggest taking a course of probiotics during your antibiotics course, as well as afterwards. When antibiotics enter the system they naturally destroy some of the body's good bacteria as well as the bad, and this disruption is thought to be the reason for side effects such as diarrhoea or thrush.
