What are probiotics?

Probiotics are the healthy bacteria that live in your intestines and are responsible for:

• Digestion of food
• Absorption of vitamins and nutrients
• Elimination of yeast and harmful bacteria
• Proper immune system function
• Elimination of toxins.

A reduction of healthy intestinal bacteria due to antiobiotics, poor diet or illness may lead to:

• Diarrhea
• Constipation
• Yeast overgrowth/infections
• Bloating
• Allergies

Common Uses for Florajen3

Prevent Antibiotic-associated Diarrhea

Take 1-3 capsules daily during the course of the antibiotic and for at least 14 days after the last dose. Separate the Florajen3 probiotic from the antibiotic dose by at least 1 to 2 hours for optimal effects. If needed, resume once-daily therapy for a total of 2 to 4 weeks after antibiotic therapy is completed.

Treat Antibiotic-associated Yeast Infections

Take 1 capsule once daily during the course of the antibiotic and for at least 14 days after the last dose. Separate the Florajen3 probiotic from the antibiotic dose by at least 1 to 2 hours for optimal effects. If needed, may increase to 1 capsule twice daily until yeast infection symptoms are under control, then resume once-daily therapy for a total of 2 to 4 weeks after antibiotic therapy is completed.

Treat Yeast Infections and Persistent Yeast Infections

Take 1 capsule twice daily for 2-4 weeks or longer as needed to resolve stubborn yeast infections. Take Florajen3 when using prescriptions such as Diflucan, Terazol, etc. Use Florajen3 along with antifungal prescriptions to help build up the protective bacteria that helps to deter future infections.

Prevention of Traveler's Diarrhea

Take 1 capsule daily. Begin 3 -5 days before departure and continue during trip and for 2 weeks after returning home. If loose stools occur, may increase to 1 capsule twice daily until resolved.

Help Crohn's, Ulcerative Colitis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Take 1 capsule once daily as a maintenance regimen. During flare-ups and exacerbations, may increase to 1 capsule twice daily if needed for 2-4 weeks or as long as needed. Patients who are also on Asacol, Lomotil, and other medications intended to moderate the digestive tract may benefit as well.

Prevent Bloating or Poor Digestion

Take 1 capsule daily for 1 to 2 months. Many patients benefit from adding a probiotic to their regimen. When the balance of good protective bacteria that is natural to the digestive tract becomes depleted, patients may experience a feeling of poor digestion, bloating, and gas.
