Effect of Increased Daily Water Intake in Premenopausal Women With Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections, A Randomized Clinical Trial. JAMA Intern Med. 2018;178(11):1509-1515. doi:10.1001/jamainternmed.2018.4204

Interventions: Participants were randomly assigned to drink, in addition to their usual fluid intake, 1.5 L of water daily (water group) or no additional fluids (control group) for 12 months.

Conclusions and Relevance: Increased water intake is an effective antimicrobial-sparing strategy to prevent recurrent cystitis in premenopausal women at high risk for recurrence who drink low volumes of fluid daily
