When the FDA ended Enforcement Discretion for stool banks in 2022, we had to stop distributing FMT. But we didn’t stop believing in the power of this science—or our duty to patients. Learn how we're still Tackling C. diff openbiome.org/c-diff-program… #OpenBiomeFoundation #Cdiff

In 2013, we built the first public stool bank in the U.S.; delivered 72,000 investigational FMTs for C. diff patients; helped shape the field of microbiome medicine; and partnered with 1,300 hospitals and clinics. openbiome.org/our-story/ #OpenBiomeFoundation #FMT #CDIFF
