After meal: it safe to assure the probiotics are protected from any reduction in potency due to stomach acid by taking them after a meal has been consumed Probiotics should not be taken directly with a hot drink. Probiotics should not interfere with other medicines or herbal / natural remedies. It is advised to drink plenty of water whilst taking a course of probiotics
