> Unless you manage to find a strain of probiotic that has been bread to be resistant to minocycline, the drug will be killing the bacteria off faster than you can take them in - its a fruitless excersise, unless you obtain a probiotic that has been bread to be resistant to tetracyclines..... do a google search, there are some out there
Saccharomyces boulardii is a yeast-based probiotic that isn't killed by antibiotics. It's expensive -- about a dollar a capsule. Its brand name in the US is Florastor. In Australia it's called SB Floractiv.
