Is anyone good at the pill timing thing?

I am having a hard time figuring out how to space out my meds.

I'm taking:

Doxy 200mg 2x day

Nystatin 500,000u 4x day

Probiotics 2x day

I'm on other supplements too but they are not hard to figure in.

It's the darn Nystatin that has me confused. Am I going to have to wake up in the middle of the night in order to make this work?

Any advice?

Thanks,
Joji

When I was taking Nystatin it was suggested that I call the pharmacist to ask about interaction with antibiotics and probiotics. My pharmacist said it does not interact with either and I could take it when ever I wanted to. Just a suggestion. Perhaps you might call your pharmacist or doctor and ask. best, p.

Yes, take Nystatin along with the antibiotics. And be sure to take the abx 2 hrs away from any probiotics. Take tons of probiotics!

an easy way to get the probiotics in is to take one dosage at bedtime or even if you wake up during the night .. take them then
