[The use of antibiotics, which while being beneficial to the person in their ability to rid the body of bacteria also play a negative role in their destruction of friendly populations of bacteria which are a normal complement of the digestive and the urinary tract.
To repopulate the bladder with these friendly bacteria supplementation with acidophilus is suggested, this supplement can be combined with another bacterial supplement containing another friendly bacterium called bifidus; these supplements will restore the balance of healthy bacteria in the body and help in the recovery from antibiotic action. All these supplements can be utilized while the use of antibiotics is going on; these will not interfere with the action of the antibiotics in anyway.]
