The antibiotics most commonly prescribed were cephalosporins (75.1%) and fluoroquinolones (11.1%). Independent predictors of postdischarge antibiotics were implant reconstruction (RR, 2.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.23\u20132.60), autologous reconstruction (RR, 2.17; 95% CI, 1.93\u20132.45), autologous reconstruction plus implant (RR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.92\u20132.31), hypertension (RR, 1.05; 95% CI, 1.00\u20131.10), tobacco use (RR, 1.07; 95% CI, 1.01\u20131.14), surgery at an academic hospital (RR, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.07\u20131.21), and receipt of home health care (RR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.04\u20131.18).
