Impact of Increased Duration of Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole Prophylaxis for Pneumocystis Pneumonia After Renal Transplant.

CONCLUSIONS Extending the duration of TMP-SMX prophylaxis was not associated with change in frequency of UTIs or multi-drug-resistant UTIs, nor was it associated with increased adverse events. TMP-SMX is an effective PCP prophylaxis, and these data support recommendations to extend the duration of prophylaxis after transplant. PMID: 31806862 [PubMed - in process]
