Use your antibiotics wisely. Consequences to the intestinal microbiome

Jorge Cervantes

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Antibiotic therapy has long term consequences in the intestinal microbiome. Clostridium difficile has a well-known role in antibiotic-associated diarrhea, but in addition, persistent infection with this organism may increase the risk for developing inflammatory bowel disease. Here, recent literature on how the intestinal microbiome is altered by antibiotic therapy is presented.
