Probiotics

KdgTeacher10

Pedi told me to start DS on probiotics. She recommened cullturelle for kids. She stated to use 1/2 a packet. DS has had terrible diarrhea the last few days. I was hoping this would help. How much of the probiotic do you use? 

Thanks!

We give DD 1-2 packets a day of Florstor Kids when she is on an antibiotic or has diarrhea issues.  I can't remember how old she was when we started though.  Maybe 18 months?

We do one packet of the Culturelle kids stuff either once a day or every other day. It really helps to firm up his poop, without it they aren't even close to firm or "ploppable" as the CDers put it. I had asked the Target pharmacist about it and she told me to follow the one full packet directions on the box, because the pedi just told me to start some, he didn't tell me which brand or how much.

I use 1-2 packets a day and continue to for a few days after the mess are done. Ive heard they work best taken away from food. We also use Culturelle.

One packet of Culturelle for Kids probiotics daily.  Works wonderfully.
