My doctor does tell everyone now, but he learned it from me and other patients. Doctors have always suggested to patients on antibiotics to eat yoghurt, but you'd have to eat a bathtub full of yoghurt to get sufficient friendly flora to stop the nausea. You need to take a lot of acidophilus, not the number of capsules suggested on the bottle (a number they recommend for general intestinal health), when you're on antibiotics. I take a handful, 6 or 8 or 12, the first time, and then 4 or 5 capsules at at time several times a day (but not along with the antibiotic), after that.

Until I figured this out, antibiotics were a nightmare for me.
