Brief Answer:
yes

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM.

Yes, it can be taken together, just dont take it at the same time so have at least 5 hours period between levofloxacin and imodium. Probiotics can be taken at any time. It is good to know that sometimes it may take even more than 4 days till digestion stabilizes after antibiotic course so you need to be patient, drink plenty of fluids and finish antibiotic course. Wish you good health. Regards
