I was told by my GI Dr not to take probiotics while on the antibiotics. The antibiotics kill the good with the bad bacteria and you're trying to replenish something that the antibiotic is killing. If you take the probiotics while taking the antibiotic you're stopping the antibiotic from doing it's job. He always told me to take the probiotics after i'm done with the antibiotic to build good bacteria.
