**Specialist Gastroenterologist’s Opinion:**
**To the Patient:**
After completing your *H. pylori* antibiotic treatment, probiotics can help restore your gut microbiome and reduce antibiotic-related side effects like diarrhea or bloating. Here’s what I recommend:
Probiotic Guidance:
1. Strain-Specific Choices:
- Saccharomyces boulardii** (e.g., Sporalac*): Proven to support gut recovery post-antibiotics.
- Lactobacillus & Bifidobacterium blends** (e.g., *VSL#3, Culturelle*): Replenish beneficial bacteria.
2. Duration:** Take probiotics for **2–4 weeks** after antibiotics.
3. Dietary Support:**
- Include yogurt, kefir, or fermented foods (e.g., kimchi).
- Avoid irritants (spicy foods, caffeine, alcohol) as advised.
Important Notes:
- Timing:** Start probiotics **after** finishing antibiotics to avoid interference.
- Consultation Needed:** *H. pylori* treatment success should be confirmed via a follow-up test (e.g., stool antigen or breath test).
For Personalized Advice:
Schedule a consultation to tailor probiotics to your needs and monitor recovery.
**My WhatsApp:** Eight Zero Zero Nine Eight Two One Three Three Two (for direct support).
