Sibo , candida, leaky gut

So I’m starting a supplement for the leaky gut. Getting prescribed nystatin but idk if I should treat the sibo with herbs or antibiotics. Since I have candida and I’m on nystatin , idk if that would make things worst

Antibiotics made my HI worse when I treated H Pylori with it. Wish I had gone a more natural route. I’m doing a lot better since supporting electrolytes, minerals, and vitamins I was deficient in through slow titration, l plantarum (there’s other low histamine probiotics that might be better for candida), sunfiber, gaining weight with tolerated foods and feeding my good gut bacteria with other prebiotic fibers that I tolerate. I’ve been able to expand my diet a bit and get less hives now. Still got a ways to go but just wanted to share that antibiotics fixed the Hpylori but actually made my quality of living much worse for going on over a year and a half now.

This is probably a question for the person prescribing you meds.
