I didnt take Pen VK but did take Keflex when I was ONE Year out. That was after having CDIFF for a Year with 5 relapses. I was on a Dificid taper for 3 months to get rid of it.

I took VSL#3 while on the Keflex. My GI and Urologist went back and forth over taking Vanco with it but the urologist concluded the Vanco( 3 months of it) started all the bladder issues so I did not.

Thankfully I did fine but the worry never seems to leave any of us when it comes to taking any antibiotic

Hoping all goes well for you
