What are the benefits and potential safety concerns of using intravesical gentamicin to treat recurrent urinary infections?
Intravesical gentamicin is effective in reducing the frequency of recurrent UTIs, offering a localized treatment option with limited systemic absorption, thereby reducing typical aminoglycoside-associated nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity risks. However, careful patient selection and monitoring are essential to managing potential safety concerns.
