What Is C Diff?
C diff infection is a bacterial illness marked by watery diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and colitis caused by Clostridioides difficile toxins disrupting the gut lining. It can range from mild discomfort to a serious, life-threatening colitis requiring urgent care. With the right treatment and support, most people recover fully and can reduce their risk of recurrence.

Frequently asked questions
C diff (Clostridioides difficile) is a bacterial infection of the colon. It most commonly occurs after antibiotic use, which disrupts the normal gut bacteria and allows C. diff to overgrow. It can also spread in healthcare settings through contact with contaminated surfaces or people.
The most common symptoms include watery diarrhea occurring three or more times per day, abdominal cramping and tenderness, fever, nausea, and loss of appetite. Severe cases can involve bloody stool, rapid heart rate, and high fever.
C diff is typically diagnosed with a stool test that detects C. difficile toxins or the genes that produce them. Your provider may ask you to provide a stool sample. In more severe cases, imaging or a colonoscopy may be needed.
Yes. Antibiotics such as oral vancomycin and metronidazole are commonly used to treat C diff infections. The choice of antibiotic depends on the severity of your infection and your history of prior C diff episodes.
C diff recurs in roughly 20 to 30 percent of people after their first infection. This happens because the gut microbiome remains disrupted after treatment, making it easier for C. diff spores to regerminate. Probiotics and careful antibiotic stewardship may help lower recurrence risk.
Staying well hydrated is important because diarrhea can cause significant fluid loss. Eating easy-to-digest foods, avoiding alcohol, and completing your full antibiotic course all support recovery. Probiotic foods and supplements may also help restore gut balance.
