Pylera contains bismuth subcitrate potassium, metronidazole, and tetracycline.
Bismuth subcitrate potassium is a mineral. Metronidazole and tetracycline are antibiotics that fight bacteria in the body.
Taking the antibiotics could also kill the good bacteria in your body so yes it is a good idea to take probiotics while taking Pylera.
