Looks like the bases are covered well on this thread so far.

Ditto on the Kefir.... Lifeway has 12 strains to help heal up after antibiotics. It is far better than yogurt.

Amoxicillin is a broad spectrum antibiotic and kills off alot of
bowel flora. A better choice for upper respiratory infections is Zithromax, which does not do that quite so much.

To avoid if possible:
Cipro
Levaquin
Avelox
other fluoroquinolones
Flagyl
Tindamax
Zyvox (which is usually a drug of last resort)
Macrodantin/Macrobid

Unfortunately this list seems to grow by the year!
