Get a good probiotic. Jarrow is good, sold on Amazon. Get their normal red label one. You are killing your gut right now, probiotics and antibiotics are ok to take together. You’ll be fine in 12-24 hours.

I took doxy for a while for a skin issue. I started on the probiotic stuff after a while, never had any issue with it. Everyone is different, so your case may not reflect mine.

Probably. I've noticed things I took as a kid that didn't do anything unusual now can cause issues. One of the joys of getting older, I guess.

Well don't take probiotics while on it. Most people can wait the X days until they're done with the antibiotics.

Once you're finished with them spend some effort I to eating foods with natural probiotics and fiber. Rebuild the colonies in your gut as soon as possible. And avoid processed carbs and sugar if you can for a few months, especially alcohol. If you can't avoid it just try to cut down as much as possible. Every bit helps.

it happened almost instantly, twisted gut and butt explosion. i took the stuff i listed in this tread and so far so good. yeah no booze for sure. i do have to work on my shit carb intake, for other reasons as well.

Common side effect for many antibiotics unfortunately. Not good for your gut biome.

yeah my asshole felt like someone stuck a chilli pepper in it for a few hrs till the probiotic took hold.
