Brief Summary: We hypothesize that probiotic Lactobacillus can augment antibiotic treatment of symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) in spinal cord injured patients, and also increase the time to the next episode of UTI.
Detailed Description: Subjects will be recruited from the outpatient population and 'alumni' of the Regional SCI Rehabilitation Programs in London (Parkwood Hospital/St Joseph's Health Care) and Hamilton (Hamilton Health Sciences Centre) Ontario.

Community living paraplegic and tetraplegic men and women (18 years and above) who present to their family physician or specialist with symptomatic UTI will be prescribed an antibiotic treatment for up to 14 days (using the drug of choice i.e. which the treating physician deems appropriate) and randomized to also receive by mouth two capsules containing placebo or probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 and L. reuteri RC-14 daily.
