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!"

For Diarrhea "Had terrible diarrhea as a result of taking an antibiotic that I needed to stop. Gastroenterologist on call recommended I take two Florastor twice a day. On the third day, I broke out in terrible hives that have not cleared up. Been taking Benadryl and using triamcinolone ointment to help. If it doesn't get better, I need to go on a prednisone pack. Not happy at all."

For Diarrhea "Have typically taken Florastor for a few weeks when taking antibiotics after a bad bout with C-diff. It worked well in those instances; however, I decided to take it daily, two a day. After a couple of months, I developed a rash on my torso that started spreading, along with tingling on my lips and tip of my tongue. My doctor put me on prednisone along with triamcinolone cream four days ago, and things are finally clearing up."
