The breath hydrogen test is simple, painless and non-invasive.  Please observe the following pretest guidlines to assure accurate results. Preparation For The Test 2 weeks prior to the test: No oral antibiotics (skin creams, eye and ear drops are OK) No probiotic supplements.  Yogurt is OK until the day before the test. **If your child is placed on antibiotics prior to the test, please reschedule. 1 week prior to the test: No stimulant laxatives, antidiarrheals or fiber supplements May continue Miralax up until the day before the test The day before the test: your
