DO NOT TAKE if taking the following medications: antibiotics+ and/or blood thinners

+Microphage is a formulation of seven strains of probiotics. The recommendation to avoid taking probiotics while taking antibiotics is based on the fact that antibiotics could reduce the effectiveness of probiotics. However, research shows that taking probiotics while taking antibiotics can help prevent diarrhea which may result from the use of antibiotics. To prevent destruction of probiotic activity, it is recommended to take probiotics and antibiotics at least two hours apart from one another. (2, 3)
