Clinical experience with gentamicin in complicated urinary tract infections (author's transl).
Gentamicin 40 mg was intramuscularly admininistered two times daily to 15 patients with complicated urinary tract infections. The results are as follows 1. The clinical efficacy of gentamicin was excellent in 12 cases (80.0%), good in 2 cases (13.3%) and null in 1 case (6.7%). The effective rate was 93.3%. 2. Bacteria disappeared in 16 strains (84.2%), colonized in 3 strains (15.8%) out of 19 isolates. 3. BUN, GOT and GPT values were determined before and after GM administration, and no significant abnormal finding attributable to GM was observed in this clinical study.
