Q: It is said that antibiotics alter the normal intestinal flora in humans which results in diarrhoeas and other problems. I want to know about the best used and available probiotics in India. I also want to know about the yeast supplements? Are these safe?

A:Probiotics are available in India. Lactobacilli solution is an example of probiotics which are usually given to paediatrics patients. Yeast supplements such as yeast used to make bread or to make curd from the milk are the safe supplements which can be used for the purpose.
