Recurrent Clostridium difficile-associated colitis responding to cholestyramine.

D Kunimoto, A B Thomson.   

Abstract

We describe a patient with relapses of Clostridium difficile cytotoxin-positive pseudomembranous colitis (PMC) after treatment with vancomycin, a course of metronidazole and a trial of bacitracin. She remains free of disease after a prolonged course of cholestyramine. We suggest there may be a role for anion-exchange resins in patients with PMC relapsing after vancomycin therapy.
