Culturelle. Just their basic "Digestive Daily Probiotic". It's a single strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus. My Dr. suggested either that or Align.

The first thing I tried worked so I haven't tried anything else. A friend of mine had the same problem and he buys generic bulk acidophilus from amazon and he says it works for him.

I didn't expect it to work, but I didn't want to wonder if it failed because I cheaped out, so I went for the expensive stuff.

Definitely going to try this too. I go though periods of acid reflux and it wakes me up. I sleep with 2 pillows so raise my head and shoulders to prevent it waking me which helps most of the time. But will give the probiotics a try. Thanks.

Good luck. I hope it works for you.

Curious - are you a back sleeper? (Or what type of sleeper are you?)

Sometimes sleep on my left side. Sometimes on my back.
