I had deep, dirty laceration and unrelenting diarrhea after taking a course of heavy antibiotics. First I tried taking Acidophilus but that did nothing. Then I found out about something called Florastor which is specifically for restoring the good bacteria (the flora) in the gut. I only had to take it a couple of days. You can buy it at Walgreens.
