Question: can augmentin cause c diff?
Answer: Nearly any antibiotic that disrupts the normal bowel flora may result in C. difficile infection and disease. Several antibiotics, however, are more commonly implicated: amoxicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin, GlaxoSmithKline), second- and third-generation cephalosporins, and clindamycin.
