title: [Cefotetan vs ceftriaxone: clinical and bacteriological efficacy in complicated forms of urinary tract infection].
abstract: Forty adult patients with UTI complicated by local and/or general diseases have been treated, 20 with Cefotetan and 20 with Ceftriaxone. Both treatments showed good clinical and bacteriological efficacy, with no statistically significant differences between the results. Cefotetan and Ceftriaxone were both well tolerated, without any local or systemic side effects.
