What Does Phage Therapy Treat?

What does phage therapy treat?

Phage Therapy treats and heals a great many multi-resistant bacterial infections (see list below), such as golden staphylococci (see the page "How to treat a golden staphylococcus"), Escherichia Coli (E.Coli), Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Pseudomonas..., and represents a very effective alternative to antibiotics, or even the only solution in the event of therapeutic impasse. Phagotherapy is natural and without side effects.

Phage therapy treats and heals:
-urinary infections (Treatment of a urinary tract infection),
-osteitis, osteo-articular infections (Treatment of a multi-resistant osteitis),
-pulmonary infections (Phage Therapy and cystic fibrosis),
-intestinal infections, (dysbiosis, "Treatment of Crohn's disease", Sibo, IBS, etc.)
-Epidermal, dermatological infections, skin infections,… (Treatment of folliculitis)),
-Improves autistic conditions by acting on the microbiota (Phage Therapy and autism)

To understand how a Phage Therapy treatment takes place, consult the following page: "Phage Therapy Treatment"

In which cases to use phage therapy ?

• Skin infectious diseases such as acne, furunculosis, carbunculosis, and pyoderma
• Pulmonary infections
• Wounds, burns, ulcers, and complications from various infections
• Infections of the oral cavity, such as stomatitis and gingivitis
• Rhino-pharyngeal and ocular infections such as tonsillitis, pharyngitis, rhinitis, sinusitis, conjunctivitis
• Intestinal infections like dysentery, salmonellosis, colitis, and dyspepsia
• Genito-urinary infections, including chronic bladder infections and prostatitis
• Complications of cystic fibrosis
• Infections associated with a weakened immune system due to the use of steroids, radiotherapy, cancer treatment, immunosuppressive drugs, or other medical conditions such as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
• Surgical infections, including infected prostheses and complicated osteomyelitis
•Recurrent folliculitis. etc.
List of bacteria that phage therapy can treat.


Indeed, this list is not exhaustive, and other bacteria can be treated with phage therapy. It is important to note that the effectiveness of phage therapy depends on the specific type of bacteria and the phage used for treatment. Each case is unique and requires an individualized evaluation and approach.

What is a standard phage ?

A standard phage is a phage that is in stock at the Institute and has excellent results against most of the following bacteria:

• Enterococcus
• Escherichia Coli
• Proteus
• Pseudomonas
• Salmonella
• Shigella
• Staphylococcus
• Streptococcus
-

What is a custom phage ?

A personalized phage is a phage that needs to be found/created to combat a bacterium for which we do not yet have efficient enough phages. It is already known that for certain types of bacteria, it is necessary to systematically create a customized phage. However, there is always the possibility that a standard phage may not be effective against the bacteria mentioned in the previous section, necessitating the creation of an autophage. Bacteria that systematically require an autophage: The aforementioned bacteria that are resistant to standard phages, - Achromobacter, - Klebsiella, - Acinetobacter, - Serratia, - Enterobacter Cloacae, ...and more. In the case of other bacterial infections not mentioned above, a laboratory study is necessary. Please consult with us.
