Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Take probiotics after completing the full course of Feroleven Tablet to replenish healthy bacteria in the intestines that may have been depleted. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods, such as cheese, yoghurt, kombucha, sauerkraut, and kimchi, can help restore the good bacteria in the intestine.
  • Include fibre-rich foods, as they can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Thus, fibre-rich foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains, such as whole-grain bread and brown rice, should be included in your diet.
  • Make sure you drink plenty of water or other fluids every day while you are taking Feroleven Tablet.
