Official title
Comparison of Outcomes in Rhinoplasty With the Use of Intraoperative Versus Postoperative Antibiotics
Overview
This study compares the efficacy of a single intra-operative (intravenous) dose of "cephalexin" (first generation cephalosporin) or "clindamycin" (lincosamides), alone versus both intra-operative (intravenous) dose of "cephalexin" (first generation cephalosporin) or "clindamycin" (lincosamides) and postoperative oral dose of "cephalexin" or "clindamycin" use in nasal surgery.
Detailed description
The study will consist of 2 treatment arms:
Treatment arm A: Intra-operative single intravenous(iv) dose of "cephalexin" 2 g or "clindamycin" 900 mg.
Treatment arm B: Intra-operative single intravenous(iv) dose of "cephalexin" 2 g or "clindamycin" 900 mg and postoperative oral dose of "cephalexin" 250mg every 4 hours or "clindamycin" 150mg every 6 hours, for a duration of three days.
Interventions
