Antibiotics Although there is no high-quality evidence, the third-generation cephalosporins are considered the standard empirical treatment for<unk>  in people with cirrhosis. In practice, cefotaxime is the agent of choice for treatment of<unk> . After confirmation of<unk> , hospital admission is usually advised for observation and intravenous antibiotic therapy. Where there is a risk of kidney malfunction developing in a syndrome called hepatorenal syndrome, intravenous albumin is usually administered too. Paracentesis may be repeated after 48 hours to ensure control of infection. After recovery from a single episode of<unk> , indefinite prophylactic antibiotics are recommended. Prokinetics The addition of a prokinetic drug to an antibiotic regimen reduces the incidence of<unk>  possibly via decreasing small intestinal<unk>  overgrowth. Intravenous albumin A randomized controlled trial found that intravenous albumin on the day of admission and on hospital day 3 can reduce kidney impairment.
