title: [Netilmicin in the treatment of infections of the lower urinary tract].
abstract: The authors treated 30 patients (11 females and 19 males) with cystitis or cystopyelitis. Patients were randomly assigned to one of the following treatments: a) netilmicin 200 mg daily, b) netilmicin 200 mg + ampicillin 1 g daily. Clinical and bacteriologic results were positive in all cases with resolution of clinical signs of infection and negative cultures at the end of treatment. Netilmicin alone yielded the same results as its combination with ampicillin. The safety, monitored also with netilmicin serum levels, was always good.
