Hi,
Lactobacillus Rhamnosus is a beneficial bacteria,it resides in intestines , & produses B complex.Itr is also known to help in health problems likecostipation, diarrhea, Mucus colitis, diverticulitis. Becelac forte is a lactobasillus preparation.
Diarrheoa/ antibiotics or digestive upsets kill these bacterias,resulting in vitamin B.complex deffeciensy & the delicate intestines get reaffected That is why you were benifited with Becelac.
However repeated bowel infections calls for pathological stool examination & specific treatment there after, along with lactobacillus preparation till the intestinal lactobacillus is reestablished.
Thank you

General Surgeon Dr. M Y Shareef's  Response
Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Yes - You can start with becelac forte again. There is no harm in doing that. However, it should be known why the intestinal infection is recurring in your case. The most common reason is the habit of frequently eating out. If you do, then you must avoid it, as food from outside is not made hygienically, and so infection easily creeps in repeatedly. You can add fresh curd as a routine to your diet .

Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic for clearing doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
