A member asked:
How much culturelle to give a 4 months old? pediatrician recommended 2x a day before antibiotics but only could find kids version (5 billion cells).

Ask her pediatrician: It's probably safe to give, but the culturelle dosage directions are only for 1-3 year olds, but they also allow up to 7 packets a day. To be safe, ask your pediatrician for his/her experience with the product.

Perfectly safe: Culturelle is considered safe in otherwise healthy infants.
