Abstract
The article is addressed to doctors of various specialties and devoted to the history of bacteriophages and the experience of their use in clinical practice. Modern data on their medical use form our image of their mechanism of action, their potential application in clinical practice, their advantages and disadvantages in comparison with more common methods of antibacterial treatment and prophylaxis. Improving the technology for the production of preparations containing bacteriophages will make them more specific for bacteria that cause infections. Various forms of drugs, such as suppositories, gels, tablets, solutions, and others, simplifies the clinical use of bacteriophages. The current problem of biofilms in urology can be solved by using bacteriophages. Phages, like other viruses, have antigenic properties and contain group-specific and type-specific antigens. Due to their high specificity, many bacteriophages serve as diagnostic tools for identifying bacterial cultures. The bacteriophages undeservedly forgotten in the middle of the last century were again enabled to be useful. Worldwide growing interest in phagotherapy contributes to the widespread implementation of new clinical research.
