Saccharomyces boulardii lyo for Diarrhea "I use this daily for gut health. Most of the side effects listed above are common from antibiotics, not Florastor. Hives, itching, and rashes are allergies to antibiotics. I know because I'm allergic to all classes of antibiotics, and those were just some of the bumps and strange rashes. I discovered Florastor as a result of a serious injury to my son. They had him on antibiotics for months. This was the only probiotic that worked while he was on antibiotics. My family has had no problems or reactions to Florastor at all. Also, when you start any probiotic, you often feel worse for a week, and then everything settles down. I love Florastor and highly recommend it!"

Saccharomyces boulardii lyo for Diarrhea "I took Florastor to help with an antibiotic I was taking, it was wonderful - until I got so itchy. All over. Palms of my hands, feet, head. Researched and itchiness is one of the side effects. Too bad because I thought it was great. Stopped taking it 2 days ago. Still itchy. Driving me crazy!"

For Diarrhea "I have taken this several times throughout my life, originally for gastritis and diarrhea years ago and more recently during and after C-diff treatment. I find it very effective at improving all aspects of my GI system. It can be (for me) a bit constipating, and prolonged use usually, after a time, starts to make me itch. So I cycle off of it sometimes, but never ever take antibiotics without it. When well, I take a pill every other day. I find it more helpful than standard probiotics, which seem to give me problems."
