Patient's question:
Hello doctor! Can pediatric probiotics and montmorillonite be taken together? Will there be any adverse reactions?Doctor's answer:
Hello! These two medications can be taken. The only side effect of Montmorillonite Powder is that taking an excessive amount may cause constipation again.Regarding the timing of taking Montmorillonite Powder, it is a gastrointestinal mucosal protective agent that forms a protective layer in the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, if taken with other medications, it is recommended to have an interval of 1-2 hours. It is best to take it 1-2 hours before meals.
Probiotics contain two types of live bacteria—Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus—which can directly digest normal physiological bacteria, inhibit pathogenic bacteria, enhance the absorption of nutrients, and inhibit the production and metabolism of enterogenic toxins to achieve the goal of re-adjusting intestinal flora imbalance.
