Core Tip	Antibiotic prophylaxis against urinary tract infection recurrences is associated with adverse drug reaction and development of resistance. Although showing some promise, alternative interventions, such as Vaccinium Macrocarpon (cranberry), Lactobacillus and Probiotics, circumcision, surgical man-a-gement of vesicoureteral reflux, deliberate coloni-zation of the urinary tract with Escherichia-coli (E. coli) 83972, treating constipation and dysfunctional voiding, administration of synthetic substitutes that reproduce natural surface glycosaminoglycan(s) anti-adherence effect on uroepithelial cells and E. coli isolate NU14 DeltawaaL as a candidate for developing a live-attenuated vaccine, do not provide so far a definitive effective answer. Further high quality research is still required.
