What is a phage cocktail?

A phage cocktail is a medicinal product containing a mixture of several types of bacteriophages capable of killing various strains of pathogenic bacteria. This formulation has a broad spectrum of activity and is highly effective in treating infections, especially those caused by antibiotic-resistant microorganisms. This article explains how phage cocktails are created, why they are preferable to single phages, and when they are used in modern medicine.

In what other industries are bacteriophages used, besides human medicine?

Bacteriophages—viruses that infect bacteria—have long been used not only in human medicine. Today, they are used in veterinary medicine, agriculture, the food industry, and even ecology. These microorganisms help fight infections without antibiotics, protect plants from disease, extend the shelf life of food, and contribute to the development of eco-friendly technologies.

17.08.2025

Why has interest in bacteriophages grown now?

The article explores the reasons for the increased interest in bacteriophages in modern medicine. Against the backdrop of growing antibiotic resistance, humanity is once again turning to phage therapy as a safe and effective alternative to antibiotics. The article discusses the benefits of bacteriophages for children and adults, the technological advances that have made their use more precise and rapid, and Ukraine's experience in this field.

What myths exist about phage therapy?

Phage therapy is gradually making a comeback in modern medicine as an alternative to antibiotics. However, myths still surround this method: that bacteriophages are dangerous, that the method is outdated, or that it is not suitable for children. This article explains scientifically and simply why these ideas are erroneous and how phage therapy is already helping fight resistant infections.

11.08.2025

What is the correct dosage of bacteriophages for children?

The article explains in detail how bacteriophage dosages are calculated for children. Factors influencing dose selection are discussed, including age, weight, type of infection, and route of administration. Approximate doses for different age groups, regimens, and durations of administration are provided, as well as cases in which a doctor may adjust the dosage. The importance of an individualized approach and following a specialist's recommendations during phage therapy in children is emphasized.

Are bacteriophages safe for children?

Bacteriophages are becoming increasingly popular in pediatric medicine as a safe alternative to antibiotics. This article examines in detail why phages are safe for children, how to select and administer them correctly, which forms are suitable for children of different ages, and whether they can be combined with other medications.

04.08.2025

What methods are used to introduce phages into the human body?

This article examines in detail the main methods of administering bacteriophages to the human body. It describes topical administration, injection, inhalation, rectal, vaginal, and ocular routes. It explains how the choice of method depends on the location and severity of the infection, as well as why proper phage delivery plays a crucial role in successful treatment.

04.08.2025

How long does treatment with bacteriophages last?

This article explains how long bacteriophage treatment takes for different types of infections. It examines factors influencing therapy duration, from the type of pathogen and immune status to the form of administration. It also describes possible reasons why the effect may not be immediate and provides recommendations for what to do if immediate results are not achieved.

01.08.2025

Do bacteriophages help destroy biofilms?

Bacteriophages are viruses that selectively attack bacteria. They are capable of destroying biofilms—resistant bacterial communities protected by a dense matrix, making them less susceptible to antibiotics. This article examines the causes of biofilm resistance, the mechanisms of action of bacteriophages, and their synergy with antibiotics in the fight against chronic and hospital-acquired infections.

29.07.2025

Are allergic reactions to drugs containing phages possible?

Do bacteriophages treat diseases caused by Helicobacter pylori?

Helicobacter pylori is one of the most common causes of gastritis, ulcers, and even stomach cancer. However, increasing bacterial resistance to antibiotics is prompting scientists to seek new treatment methods. One promising approach is the use of bacteriophages—viruses that infect bacteria. This article examines their mechanisms of action, advantages, implementation challenges, and the current state of research in phage therapy for Helicobacter pylori.
