The proton pump inhibitor omeprazole does not promote <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> colonization in a murine model
2019-09-19
Abstract excerpt
Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use has been associated with microbiota alterations and susceptibility to Clostridioides difficile infections (CDIs) in humans. We assessed how PPI treatment alters the fecal microbiota and whether treatment promotes CDIs in a mouse model. Mice receiving a PPI treatment were gavaged with 40 mg/kg of omeprazole during a 7-day pretreatment phase, the day of C. difficile challenge, and t...
