I have recently tried a Probiotic made by Nature's Way called Primadophilus Intensive maximum support probiotic+prebiotic. I swear that this has made me feel better than pretty much everything that I have ever tried. Each comes in a 10 pack, and after about 4-5 days I felt like a different person. I highly recommend it. The cost is about $15 for a package of 10 but like I said once I tried one package I ordered another month's supply.

yes, I do probiotics as well, helped keep the blood away .. I use garden of like primal defense ultra.. they are pretty expensive but worth it for me at this point

Just as Nikanika said about PRIMAL DEFENSE ULTRA (by Garden of Life), the ingredient that makes Primal Defense "ULTRA" (compared to original formula) is Saccharomyces boulardii.

None of this is new, but thanks anyways Starwoman.

its well liked, being 1 of many prozac types, generics may be available cheaper as its an older med
start with half a tablet and slowly up the dose, google for the recommended dose range, work up to the min dose then beyond later
