A record review of the National Library of Medicine, accessed 06/20/2023, Fidaxomicin (Dificid), a Novel
Oral Macrocyclic Antibacterial Agent For the Treatment of Clostridium difficile-Associated Diarrhea in Adults
- PMC (nih.gov) revealed: The recommended dosage of fidaxomicin for the treatment of adults with CDAD
is 200 mg twice daily with or without food for 10 days. No dosage adjustment is required based on the
patient's renal function, age, or sex.17 According to the drug's labeling, fidaxomicin should be used only for
infections that are known or are strongly suspected to be caused by C. difficile to avoid the development of
drug-resistant bacteria, which would lessen the effectiveness of fidaxomicin.17 To date, fidaxomicin and
vancomycin are the only medications approved for the treatment of CDAD.
