I thought I'd post our experience/usage for anyone else who is interested:
My son (almost 3 and 37lbs) gets 1 teaspoon (55mg dose) of Nature's Way Primadophilus Children (powder) mixed in applesauce (or smoothie) which has about 3 billion CFU. I have given it twice daily during tummy viruses and such. I have not yet come across anything research-wise that suggests you can give too much, but I'm not sure.
He has also taken the Kidophilus chewables which I believe is in the same range of 3 billion CFU.
I believe gut health is directly related to lung health. In fact, much of the body's immune and biochemistry happens in the gut. It certainly can't hurt to try to reduce inflammationi and provide beneficial bacteria daily.
