NO: unless you develop severe and unremitting diarrhea. Please separate your doses by 2-3 hrs.

C. Difficile : Studies show Clostridium difficile enterocolitis accounts for only 10-20% of antibiotic associated diarrhea. Usually antibiotic associated diarrhea is benign and self limited and c. Diff is usually a nosocomial disease seen in hospital inpatients. Risk lasts a month after you stop taking antibiotics so continue saccharomyces or lactobacillus for 30 days. Don't worry you'll be okay. Stay calm.
