In this nationwide target trial emulation of 1,700 kidney transplant recipients, no differences in bacterial infection rates at 12‐month post‐transplant was observed between short (5‐7 months) and long (≥7 months) TMP‐SMX prophylaxis (9.1% vs 11.5%; adjusted risk difference +2.1%, 95% CI −0.5 to +5.3). Most infections were UTIs due to Enterobacterales.
