Minocycline-rifampin-impregnated penile prosthesis surfaces retain antimicrobial activity following irrigation with 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate and antibiotic solutions.

0.05% CHG does not alter the antimicrobial activity of the minocycline-rifampin-impregnated surface as compared with vancomycin/gentamycin and normal saline in vitro; however, its efficacy in clinical practice remains to be evaluated.
