A system modeling bacteriophage treatments with coinfections in a noisy context is analyzed. We prove that in a small noise regime, the system converges in the long term to a bacteria free equilibrium. Moreover, we compare the treatment with coinfection with the treatment without coinfection, showing how the coinfection affects the dose of bacteriophages that is needed to eliminate the bacteria and the velocity of convergence to the free bacteria equilibrium.
