title: [Clinical studies on combination therapy of cephem antibiotics in chronic complicated urinary tract polymicrobial infections due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other bacteria].
abstract: Patients with chronic complicated urinary tract polymicrobial infections due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other bacteria were treated with cefsulodin using cefotiam or cefmenoxime as a concomitant drug. Each drug was given to the patients in daily dose of 1 or 2 g by drip infusion twice a day for 5 to 16 days. The results were as follows: Overall clinical efficacy was excellent in 7 cases (44%), moderate in 6 cases (38%) and poor in 3 cases (19%), the effectiveness rate being 81.3%. Bacteriologically, 38 strains (88.4%) were eradicated, 1 strain decreased and 4 strains unchanged out of the 43 clinical isolates from the patients. No side effects and no abnormalities of laboratory findings were observed.
