Summary
Our study aims to show that lack of antibiotic prophylaxis to those undergoing bladder Botox
injections is not significantly inferior to administering prophylaxis. By proving this, we
aim to decrease antibiotic use in this setting to combat the growing issue of antibiotic
resistance.
Participants will be randomized to antibiotic or no treatment arm. Those randomized to the
treatment arm will receive oral antibiotics for 2 days pre-treatment, on the treatment day,
and 2 days post-treatment. Patients will return for a follow up appointment approximately 2
weeks after treatment to assess for UTI symptoms. They will be called again at 6 weeks for
follow up.
