The treatment is not yet approved in our country, but there are already options available for those who wish to be treated with it. This guide provides up-to-date research information for everyone affected by the threat of resistant pathogens, such as people with cystic fibrosis, diabetes, heart diseases, or recurrent urinary tract infections. A valuable resource for those affected and an intriguing book for all medically interested readers. Features: 10 color photos and graphics.
