Can you take probiotics at the same time as your vits? How many times a day?

Is it alright to take your probiotics with your vits? I see where some take them once a day, and others take them more times. Also, will probiotics help change my p.h. levels, maybe from being not so acidic.... Acid seems to be wearing my poor "bum" out.... uhg. Yes, I do take prilocec daily, and works great for my heartburn, no issues there. In fact my heartburn is better after my DS...

They might help your bum, however look instead to what you're eating.  Onions and milk make me burn like that.

There should be no problem taking probiotics with vitamins. Mine say to take with a cold non-carbonated beverage or cold food such as yogurt, ice cream or applesauce. I sprinkle mine in a salad with ranch dressing sometimes. I take one dose mid-morning with Greek yogurt and one dose after lunch sprinkled into a salad, or maybe in a protein shake at lunchtime if a salad isn't doable.

No problem whatsoever.  I do agree with Valerie that you should track what you are eating because more times than not that's the culprit.
