Which antiobotics more likely cause c diff? is there a list i can see? or can you name some.

Any ant-biotic can,: The risk is higher w/ broad-spectrum antibiotics - those aimed at a wide range of bacteria it is also higher w/ multiple antibiotics or using antibiotics for a long time. Probiotics can help and most folk do get better when they stop use. Your dr needs to find the best tx for you or you need to find the best doctor who will. http://www.webmd.com/digestive-disorders/clostridium-difficile-colitis.
