I am 22 year old male. I want to know the difference between these probiotics: entroflora, econorm, providac. As a treatment procedure of my ibs, I was prescribed these medicines at three different time period by three different doctors. I just want to know which is for what reason. I have consumed 5 tabs of econorm by one doctor. Then I switched to another doctor and I have consumed 10 tabs of entroflora and could not continue it as medicine was not available nearby. Now I have come across providac as per advice of a online doctor. (other medicine razo d, sibofix are prescribed with it) should I continue entroflora after the discontinuation or start consuming providac?

All the names mentioned by you are all having more or less a similar action i.e. they colonise in your digestive tract and outnumber the pathological or harmful bacteria so that your digestive system improves and IBS remains under control.
