This will be the first randomized clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of preoperative oral antibiotics plus MBP versus preoperative oral antibiotics only, before colonic surgery. The knowledge obtained could help to establish the ideal preparation for patients scheduled to undergo resection of the colon. Full protocol NCT04161599.
