title: [Clinical study and effect of nitroxoline on fecal flora in children].
abstract: Twelve children (mean age: 4) are treated in practice office with nitroxoline (200 mg/kg/24 h) during 10 days for urinary tract infection. A study on the effect of nitroxoline against the fecal flora is undertaken in a group of 21 children who receive nitroxoline during 4 days or a long period. Bacteriological and clinical efficacy is checked when urinary concentrations of nitroxoline are greater than 16 mg/l. The results show 8 clinical and bacteriological success one true failure and 3 failure due to a non-compliance to the treatment. No qualitative and quantitative modification of the fecal flora is observed after treatment with nitroxoline.
