Clostridioides (Clostridium) difficile (C. difficile) is a gram-positive bacterium that infects the large intestine. The number of clostridium difficile infections has increased in the recent years due to multiple risk factors including frequent use of antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors. The virulence of C. difficile comes from its production of toxins. Treatment for C. difficile infection includes the use of antibiotics, monoclonal antibodies, or a fecal transplant.
