Addressing Antibiotic Use
for Yeast Infection (Vaginal Thrush)
Taking probiotics during and after antibiotic courses to prevent antibiotic-associated thrush.
How it works
Antibiotics disrupt the Lactobacillus-dominant vaginal microbiome allowing Candida overgrowth. Probiotics help maintain protective flora.
What to watch for
Take probiotics at a different time from antibiotics (2+ hours apart). Continue for 1 week after completing antibiotics.
