Irina, 34 years old < / strong> : The probiotic Linex was assigned to us by a doctor together with an antibiotic. My baby does not even feel it – in every meal I mix powder with sweet water and give it a drink to him, which he does with pleasure. We did not have problems with the intestines and an imbalance of bacteria. The only negative is the high price of the medicine.
