Abstract
Although antibiotic therapy will decrease serum total prostate specific antigen, it will not decrease the risk of prostate cancer even if the prostate specific antigen decreases to less than 4 ng/ml. Therefore, prescribing antibiotics for asymptomatic men with a newly increased prostate specific antigen may not be an appropriate method of management.
