- Madmallard 6y agoBecause you can't. They're reserved for c-diff infections and there isn't much risk data on use cases outside of that such that regular providers won't give it the OK.
- ineedasername 6y agoThis was 20 years ago. While not brand new at the time, it wasn't very common. A lot of work on FMT has only taken place in the last decade. I don't think there was even a randomized trial for it as a treatment method until the last 10 years.
