I just started taking the Culturelle. I got it at Walmart. It says to refrigerate it if you will be keeping past the best buy date. 30 pills for around $17.

Hi Dianne,

My daughter is 4 1/2 with CF. I give her Culturelle daily. I get it from drugstore.com. If you order enough stuff from them you get free shipping(love that) plus I searched around and felt their price was cheapest. i keep the culturelle in the fridge, you don't have to but it stays fresher longer that way. My daughter's nutritionist said all probiotics are not created equal and Culturelle was actually studied so it has the ingrediants in it it says it does that are effective. When my daughter is on IV's or strong oral anti's i give it to her 2 times a day. I really think this stuff has kept yeast and her digestion in check. Adult dosages may be different but I'm sure someone on here can tell you what they take. HTH

No need to refrigerate. I take one in am and one in pm. Space them out as far away from antibiotic dosing as possible.
I order from here and they also carry New Chapter supplements (food based created through probiotic process) which I like a lot:

I'm currently working my way through a big bottle of Primal Defense Ultra. It was fairly expensive but seems to have a good following and since there are no regulations, it lookes like a good choice.
