10.00 zł

Hello, I have to take Macromax for 3 days and Neosine Duo for 5 days.
How many days should I take a probiotic? At the pharmacy, the lady advised you to take Biotyk for 10 days. How long after I stop taking medication will I be able to consume alcohol?

Up to @Anonim:

You can drink alcohol while taking probiotics, but it's worth bearing in mind that alcohol can affect the gut microflora that the probiotic is designed to support. As a result, alcohol consumption can reduce the effectiveness of probiotic therapy. To minimize the potential negative impact, it is advisable to keep an interval of at least 2-3 hours between taking the probiotic and consuming alcohol.

I took Macromax only for 3 days, not 10. 10 days in theory I have to take a probiotic. Can I already drink alcohol while taking it (but a few days after I stop taking Macromax)? Should you keep some time before/after a probiotic without alcohol?

After completing a 10-day treatment with Macromax (amoxicillin), it is recommended to wait about 3-4 days before drinking alcohol. During this time, the concentration of the drug in the blood should drop significantly, which will minimize the risk of interactions. However, it is important to remember that alcohol can weaken the immune system and affect the healing process, so it is worth being careful and moderate.

I understand, and when taking Biotyk for these 10 days, after the end of antibiotic therapy, you can already consume alcohol?

"It is worth refraining from alcohol consumption for this time after taking the last dose of the drug" - we are talking about the antibiotic.

"It is worth refraining from drinking alcohol for this time after taking the last dose of the drug", are we talking about an antibiotic or a probiotic?

It is worth using a probiotic at least 10-14 days after antibiotic therapy. The probiotic can also be used for a longer period of time after taking an antibiotic.
The time it takes for azithromycin levels in the body to halve is between 48 and 72 hours. It is worth refraining from alcohol consumption for this time after taking the last dose of the drug.

Therefore, be guided by the information in the pharmacists' responses in the first place.
