Could one day of antibiotics be enough for bile duct infections?
NCT ID NCT05750966
First seen Feb 05, 2026 · Last updated May 09, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This study looks at whether giving antibiotics for just 1 day after a bile duct infection (cholangitis) has been drained is as effective as the usual 4 to 7 days. About 440 adults with this infection will be randomly assigned to either the short or standard course. The goal is to see if the shorter treatment can cure the infection just as well, while possibly causing fewer side effects and shortening hospital stays.
