title: The treatment of symptomatic urinary tract infection.
abstract: 779 patients suffering from symptoms of urinary tract infection have been studied. Fifty-two per cent were found to have true bacterial infection of the urine. Several treatment regimes were assessed, and of these it appeared that sulphamethizole 1g three times a day was most effective, both in terms of a lower rate of relapse of infection and also a low incidence of side effects.
