Hi,
Providac is a 'probiotic' (lactobacillus) commonly prescribed for the treatment of loose motions associated with antibiotics, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers in digestive tract, vaginal infections and other conditions. You may continue to take it after consulting your treating doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
