Core Tip |
Recurrent Clostridium difficile has been a challenge for patients, clinicians and hospital alike. Drug therapy for this epidemic is still not very effective. A more traditional method of fecal transplant has been discussed in this article, but it has been an uphill task to execute. We are discussing this first randomized control study, showing overarching benefits of stool transplant over traditional drug treatment. More studies needed with similar results, before making a strong recommendation in favor of it.
