Microbes put drugs in(action)

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Interactions between the gut microbiome, nutrients, drugs, and host physiology are inherently complex. Gut microbes contribute significantly towards host homeostasis and can modulate host-targeted drugs, affecting therapeutic outcomes. Finding ways to harness the gut microbiome to improve drug efficacy can be a promising strategy to advance precision medicine.
