Took Rephresh Pro-B And Helps Ph Balance. Bow Have Huge Rash On Cheeks. Side Effect?
Brief Answer:
Yes, discontinue
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXX
Given the temporal relation between the introduction of the probiotic supplement and the nature/location of the symptoms, an allergic reaction to any of the components of Refresh Pro B is possible; you could try an oral antihistaminic such as fexofenadine, cetirizine or diphenhydramine, and a topical low dose steroid as hydrocortisone for relief, as well as discontinuing the supplement. Some of the good quality yogurts, such as Greek yougurt, can provide appropiate probiotic support.
