I know some of you took EnteraGam after c difficile. Did you take it with food, before, or after?

Hi Beth,
When I am having a good day I take it between breakfast and lunch, and after dinner.
Right now I am taking one packet a day, so a half packet each time.
Previously before Rifaximin treatment for SIBo when my symptoms were worse, I took two packets a day, the same way.
When I wake up in the morning and have D, I take it first thing since I am then “empty”, and don’t eat for a bout two hours. It seems to calm things down as it goes through my GI tract.
I was able to avoid the necessity of regular Imodium use in order to work for about two months preceding taking Rifaximin. It helped “enough”. The best thing about it is you don’t have to worry about it effecting other meds.
I do feel it is more effective taking it at two points during the day than just one.
