Florastor Kids Dual Action Probiotic Supplement, Strengthens Kids' Digestive & Immune Health, 20 Easy-to Mix Powder Sticks, Packaging May Vary

My youngest child has had multiple ear infections in his first year and a half of life, which unfortunately meant several rounds of antibiotics. One of the physicians who treated an early infection recommended this specific probiotic, and after looking into it myself, I felt comfortable using it. I’m a registered dietitian, so I tend to be very selective about supplements, especially when it comes to my children. The strain selection and supporting research behind this probiotic met my standards, which gave me confidence adding it during antibiotic use and for a period afterward to be as gentle on his gut as possible. Administration has been easy. I mix the recommended amount directly into his bottle of milk, and he drinks it without any issue. I’ve also given it to my other children during illnesses, and they never noticed it was added. Overall, this has been a simple and reassuring way to support gut health during and after antibiotic use, and it’s something I try to keep on hand now. Pros: • Physician-recommended • Scientifically sound strain selection • Easy to administer (no taste issues) • Well tolerated by infants and children Cons: • Requires consistent use during and after antibiotics • Higher price point than some other probiotics

My toddler was diagnosed with an ear infection and prescribed amoxicillin (liquid antibiotic). Since this is my first child, I asked the pediatrician about probiotics and was told yogurt would be enough. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. On day 5 of antibiotics, my child developed severe diarrhea, and I honestly didn’t know what to do next. After some research, I decided to try these yeast-based probiotics — and I’m really glad I did. I gave 2 packets on the first day (one in the morning and one in the evening), mixing them into her milk formula. By the second day, things were noticeably better. The yeast smell might seem unusual, but it’s yeast — that’s expected. My child didn’t notice anything, drank the full bottle, and had no refusal at all. What I appreciate most is that these probiotics can be taken at the same time as antibiotics. Since they are yeast-based, antibiotics don’t destroy them, so they actually do their job supporting the gut during treatment. My advice to other parents: if your child starts antibiotics, add probiotics from day one. I wish I had done that earlier. These really helped us through a tough moment.

This probiotic is a lifesaver when your kids are taking oral antibiotics. My kids have had multiple rounds of ear infections and this probiotic has saved their butts (literally..)
