Antibiotics

I've been on antibiotics for 2 days now and i've noticed some severe bloating, does anybody know how to get rid of it? I went back to the clinic because of the major discomfort this was causing me, apparently the first set of antibiotics were too hard on my stomach causing the severe bloating. I'm now on a new set of antibiotics that are less strong than the first, im scared the bloat wont go away immediately because I have lots of major events coming up.. Has this ever happened to anyone? I know it's impossible to get "fat" in 3 days but just need some reassurance. lol :)

    Can you ask the clinic what you can do to help with that?

    I've never experienced major bloating with antibiotics however I try to avoid antibiotics whenever possible so I haven't taken them often. I have heard suggestions for probiotics helping.... maybe ask the clinic and see if that would be ok to take or if they have any other suggetions.

    Probiotics or cultured yoghurt.
