Is it ok to eat yogurt if you are on an antibiotic?

Question

I am taking amoxicillin for a sinus infection, and I am curious if eating yogurt is ok, since yogurt has bacteria in it.

Answer 1

yes, in fact it is a good idea to do so...however, separate taking the antibiotic and eating the yogurt by about two hours, or the antibiotic will go to work on the bacteria in the yogurt and lessen the work it does on your infection.
