Microbiome Disruption and C. diff Recurrence
Understand the gut microbiome and its role in recurrent C. diff infection.
Your gut is home to trillions of microbes—including both good and bad bacteria—that help maintain your overall health. This is called your gut microbiome. It can affect your immunity and nervous system and protect against infection.1-3
When your gut microbiome is disrupted, bad bacteria like C. diff may take over and cause an infection. Sometimes, a C. diff infection can come back more than once. This is called a recurrence.2,4
Antibiotics treat C. diff infection but do not treat the disruption of the gut microbiome. Microbiome disruption increases the risk of C. diff infection recurrence.4,5
REBYOTA is the first and only FDA approved microbiome-based treatment to prevent recurrent C. diff infection, after you’ve already taken antibiotics.12
