I get migraines.  I have occasionally taken acidophilus while taking antibiotic, since the antibiotic kills off the good bacteria too, not just the bad bacteria, and can cause diarrhea.  I don't think I noticed any headache stemming from it. You'll find acidophilus in some milk and yogurt with live cultures.  For a whopping dose, check with your pharmacist if it is safe for you.
