Fleroxacin, 400 mg once daily, and norfloxacin, 400 mg twice daily, both administered orally, were compared for the treatment of serious urinary tract infections (UTIs). In total, 301 patients from multiple centers who had serious UTIs were randomized to receive fleroxacin or norfloxacin in a
Temafloxacin is a new fluoroquinolone that achieves a high urine concentration and has potent, broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against most pathogens associated with urinary tract infections. The clinical efficacy and safety of temafloxacin were assessed in adult females with acute,
In a double-blind, randomized, multicenter study, 400 women with symptoms of acute urinary tract infections were treated with either a 7-day course of temafloxacin hydrochloride (400 mg once a day; n = 204) or a 10-day course of trimethoprim (160 mg) and sulfamethoxazole (800 mg) (TMP-SMZ) twice
Eighty-three patients with serious urinary tract infections were treated with oral ciprofloxacin. Of these patients, 79 were hospitalized, and 41 had known structural or neurologic abnormalities of the urinary tract. The most common pathogens were members of the family Enterobacteriaceae (MICs, less
A new sulfonamide, sulfacytine, was compared in a double-blind study with sulfisoxazole for the treatment of acute uncomplicated urinary tract infection in 98 outpatients. Patients received either 4 gm. sulfisoxazole or 1 gm. sulfacytine daily for 10 days. Evaluation was made of the bacteriologic
OBJECTIVE
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are frequently complicated with bacteremia. Many cases of this infection are diagnosed and treated by general practitioners. We retrospectively exam- ined the characteristics of UTIs presenting with urosepsis.
METHODS
We assigned 57 UTI patients into two

METHODS
Retrospective chart review (2004 - 2006) of patient records from the preoperative period to follow-up of 6 weeks from procedure.

Urinary tract infections (UTI) are the second most common infection in geriatric population. This study investigated clinical findings, diagnostic approaches, complicating factors, prognosis, causative microorganisms and antimicrobial susceptibility in geriatric patients diagnosed with
BACKGROUND
The optimal duration of antibiotic therapy in older patients with uncomplicated urinary tract infection (UTI) is still a matter of debate. The aim of this randomized controlled double-blind noninferiority trial was to compare the efficacy and safety of 3-day and 7-day courses of oral
The study was undertaken to compare the safety and efficacy of twice-daily ciprofloxacin for 3 days with standard 7 day therapy with either co-trimoxazole or nitrofurantoin in the treatment of women with acute, uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTI). This multicentre, prospective, randomized,
Abstract The clinical effects of treatment with a trimethoprim (TMP)-sulphamethoxazole (SM) combination were studied in 40 patients with urinary tract infection. The indication for treatment was symptoms of urinary tract infection with > 10(5) colonies per ml of urine. The dosage was 160 mg of TMP
The efficacy and safety of two fluoroquinolone antimicrobial agents, lomefloxacin and ciprofloxacin, were compared in a randomized, investigator-blinded, multiple-dose study that enrolled 150 adult outpatients with complicated or recurrent urinary tract infections. A total of 75 patients were
The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of low-dose, long-term cefadroxil prophylaxis in preventing recurrent urinary tract infections in children. A prospective, randomized trial in 33 children (32 female, 1 male) aged 2-14 years (mean 8.1+/-2.8) was conducted. Children with
Patients were entered in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to compare low- and high-dose fleroxacin with norfloxacin for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infection (UTI). A total of 296 patients were enrolled; 102, 97, and 97 patients were randomized to receive 200 mg
