First seen Jan 28, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study tested whether putting antibiotics directly into the bladder (intravesical gentamicin) could prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in postmenopausal women. Twenty participants were assigned to either the bladder instillation or daily oral antibiotics. The main goal was to see if this approach was feasible and acceptable, not yet to prove it works better.
