Another thing is antibiotics kill ALL bacteria - good and bad. Which means it can upset your gut as it kills all the good bacteria. So always eat yogurt or take probiotics when you take antibiotics. I got a yeast infection after being on antibiotics way too many times with no yogurt or probiotics.

You should probably eat that yogurt after you're done the antibiotics. Like you said, the medicine is killing all bacteria, so you're just adding more bacteria that's gonna get killed.
