Gastro Doc calls Vowst a C-Diff "game changer".

Posted by JerryP @jfperrone, Sep 24 8:23am

After multiple bouts of C Diff it was suggested I try Vowst.
I did! So far alls quiet on the southern front. Vowst says it is 88% effective. I hope I'm one of them. Problem! My co pay was $2500.
However they are open to relaxing this amount.

Hi Jerry. Thank you for sharing the information about Vowst and how well it’s worked for you. (Shhhh we don’t want to jinx anything! 😉)
C-diff is no joke and it just loves to make repeat visits! I’m so sorry you’ve been victim to this nasty gut issue.
C-diff is highly contagious and easy to get reinfected no matter how cautious a person is. Judicious hand washing is a must. Also, it can help to eat pre and pro-biotics to keep the gut biome healthy and balanced so the C-diff bacteria doesn’t have the opportunity to grow out of control.
In spite of all the efforts to control it, the bacteria has other plans. So this Vowst does sound like a game changer! I wish you continued good success!!

That’s a pricey co-pay, but if it works I’d say it’s worth it! Is this treatment a one-time prescription or is it ongoing?
