FMT capsules

FMT capsules are fecal samples encased in pill form. They are ingested just like any other pill, and have a casing designed to break down in the gut so that there is no taste or smell and they are safe for digestion. The pills contain the same material used in enema, colonoscopy, or nasoenteric tube FMTs.

That’s the conclusion of a recent study assessing the effectiveness of fecal microbiota transplants (FMT) delivered in pill form, versus given by colonoscopy. It sounds a bit off-putting, but validating the safety and efficacy of fecal capsules could give patients with gut diseases a cheaper and less invasive option for treatment.
