Clostridium Difficile Infections Overview
Clostridium difficile is a gram-positive, anaerobic, spore-forming bacillus which is a predominant bacterial cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and colitis. C. difficile produces two main toxins - toxins A and B - that cause inflammation in the colon. One is 7 to 10 times more likely to get C. diff infection while taking antibiotics and during the month after and that is because antibiotics that fight bacterial infections by killing bad germs can also get rid of the good germs that protect the body against harmful infections, like C. diff infections.
