Summary

This study looks at whether it is safe to avoid antibiotics before bladder Botox injections in people with multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injury who have bacteria in their urine but no symptoms. About 526 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either antibiotics or no antibiotics around the time of the procedure. The goal is to see if skipping antibiotics leads to more urinary tract infections in the six weeks after the injection.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
antibiotic therapy (or no antibiotic therapy)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that many patients can safely avoid antibiotics before bladder Botox injections, reducing antibiotic overuse and side effects.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial. It may find that skipping antibiotics increases the risk of symptomatic urinary tract infections, and results may not apply to all patients.
