Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

This study will investigate the treatment of urinary tract infection in men. Specifically, the investigators are looking to see if shorter duration of antibiotics (7 days) is any worse than longer duration of antibiotics (14 days). The investigators will also study whether longer treatment leads to an increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria in the large intestine (colon), or an increase in drug side effects.
