Science
Antibiotics are commonly used medicines in Australia to treat conditions caused by bacterial infections. While antibiotics are very effective in killing harmful bacteria, they also unintentionally target the good bacteria that live in the gut, disrupting the balance of bacteria which make up the gut microbiome. This disruption to the gut microbiome is known as ‘dysbiosis’, and can cause side effects such as diarrhoea(1). Taking probiotics during and after antibiotic use can help to restore the number and diversity of beneficial bacteria in the gut(2), keeping the digestive system healthy.
