Clostridium Difficile Stool Test Kit

At-home stool test for Clostridioides difficile and its toxins.

What this test measures

A single stool sample tested for C. difficile and the toxins it produces.

Why these markers matter

C. difficile is a bacterium that can be present without causing problems and can also overgrow when the normal gut population is disrupted — most commonly after antibiotics. Testing looks for both the organism and its toxins, because the two answer different questions. This is a test with a clear clinical pathway attached, which is why the result belongs with a practitioner rather than in an inbox.

What you get

Kit posted to you with instructions and return packaging. Results in your private dashboard, typically within about a week.

Before you collect

Collect before starting any new antibiotic if possible. Refrigerate and post back same day.

Who this suits
