Do you usually recommend a modified diet for Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI)?

Either low fiber or high fiber, or other? Or probiotics?

Answer from: at Academic Institution

Post-infection IBS is common after C. diff infection, and some of these patients have dietary intolerances. Other than avoiding foods that exacerbate these symptoms, I do not recommend any particular diet. I also do not recommend probiotics, in keeping with society guidelines.
