Point taken. Being "only" Lactose Intolerant makes some things easier.
I mention Lactobacillus because many people have GI problems while
taking antibiotics and can be helped by it.
Having said that, I use Nature's Bounty Chewable - which does NOT seem
to have any milk products at all - see

Ingredients
Sucrose, Dextrose, Fructose, Citric Acid, Strawberry Flavor (Natural),
Vegetable Oil (Palm Olein, Soy, Coconut, High Oleic Sunflower Oils),
Vegetable Magnesium Stearate, Silica
Maybe that's an alternative?
