Weekly antibiotic rotation shows promise in slashing recurrent UTIs

NCT ID NCT01388413

Summary

This study tested a new weekly antibiotic schedule to prevent painful urinary tract infections (UTIs) in adults with neurogenic bladder, a condition often caused by spinal cord injury or neurological disease. Participants took one antibiotic one week and a different one the next, repeating this cycle. The goal was to see if this approach reduces infections and hospital visits without increasing antibiotic resistance.
