Methenamine Hippurate Versus Trimethoprim in the Prevention of Recurrent UTIs
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Hypothesis:
The hypothesis of this study is that the group taking trimethoprim will have a lower recurrence rate than those taking methenamine hippurate based on the literature. The investigators aim to identify to what degree that difference is and whether or not it is an acceptable difference given the greater degree of an antibiotic resistance.
Objectives:
The primary objective of this prospective, randomized study is to determine whether there is a significant difference in the prevention of recurrent UTIs when given either methenamine hippurate or daily suppressive antibiotics independent of vaginal estrogen use.
The secondary objective of this study is to determine how well patients are able to tolerate each of these medications and what adverse effects are observed in a 1 year time period.
Specific Aims:
- Identify if there is a differential impact on prevention of recurrent UTIs when treated with either trimethoprim or methenamine hippurate in a 6 and 12 month period.
- Identify adverse reactions in each group.
- Determine whether or not estrogen has a more additive effect to trimethoprim or methenamine hippurate in post-menopausal women.
- Identify how well tolerated the study medications are and whether or not the size of the pills or the frequency of taking them prevents patients from continuing therapy.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Patients with recurrent UTIs arm 1
Patients are randomized to receive methenamine hippurate in one arm if they are diagnosed with recurrent urinary tract infections.
|
antiseptic used in the prevention of recurrent UTIs.
Estrogen cream may be prescribed if the patient is post-menopausal (but not as a part of this study).

|
up to 12 months
|
Recurrent UTI
Time Frame: up to 12 months
|
The number of patient who had a recurrence of UTI within 12 months
|
up to 12 months
|
Number of Infections
Time Frame: up to 12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Adverse Effects
Time Frame: up to 12 months
|
The percentage of patients complaining of adverse effects of each medication, including dyspepsia, dysuria, rash, pruritus, nausea, epigastric pain, vomiting, glossitis, taste changes, fever, and photosensitivity.
|
up to 12 months
|
Morisky Medication Adherence Survey
Time Frame: up to 12 months
|
Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8 (MMAS-8).
Patient tolerability of medications using a tolerability survey.
Minimum and maximum scores are 0 and 8 respectively.
0 means no adherence and 8 is maximal adherence.
Low adherence corresponds to a score less than 6, medium adherence is between 6 and <8, and 8 is high adherence.

up to 12 months
|
Bacterial Infection Prevalence and Types
Time Frame: up to 12 months
|
Urine cultures and sensitivities for positive urine cultures
|
up to 12 months
