I took Culturelle for a while with no trouble, and I recently switched to Jarrow S. Boullardi, again no trouble, but I"m not sure I'm getting positive results either.

I'm jealous! I miss my dairy. Especially cow's milk. My almond milk is just not the same and I can only have it on my cereal, not in a glass....gag!

So far I've been lucky with the Pepto but I've only been on the high dose for almost 2 weeks now. No side effects just yet. I have tried the Imodium which works just as well for me but the doctor wanted me on Pepto instead of that for some reason. I prefer the Imodium as I can take it a lot longer with no ill effects. I know some people who have taken it for years. I just hope not to get on steroids.

Thanks again!

@Zizzle....now I remember you telling me that before but didn't know how it was working for you. I guess it takes a few weeks? Let me know how it goes. I'm thinking about taking Culturelle right now and see what happens.

Hi JMay,

My Culturelle doesn't specify which one it is so I am clueless. It has 10 billion lactobacillus GG. Not sure which one of the above that you referenced that I have. I've looked all over the package. Brandy
