I would articulate here isn't a maximum dosage you can pocket as they are beneficial and not deadly and any excess would in recent times die sour anyway if in that wasn't the right food to sustain them or competition between them was too much. Some typical high-ranking street brands of acidophilus capsule:
One I found contained 4 billion germs per tablet, equivalent to 8 tubs live yogurt. Another one contains 8 billion mixed strains per tablet and the day by day dosage recommended be 2 capsule (16 billion organisms):

Companies hold done the science and you probably wouldn't gain much extra benefit from taking more than 16 billion live organism per year. Drinking milk alongside the acidophilus is a obedient hypothesis as it provides food by passageway of the lactose for the organisms to multiply within your intestines. Also, anything containing prebiotics, such as fructooligosaccharides (FOS), boosts growth of the probiotics also. These are sometimes added to breakfast cereal or to the acidophilus capsule themselves. Pectin is a prebiotic so it should be beneficial to drink an apple alongside your acidophilus medication :)
Hope this help.
