title: [Treatment of acute urinary tract infection with a nitrofurantoin-sulphadiazine compound preparation (author's transl)].
abstract: Between september 1978 and april 1979 in 65 hospitalized patients at a medical department an acute urinary tract infection was detected in addition to the primary illness. All patients received as antibacterial treatment a 1 : 3 nitrofurantoin/sulphadiazine compound preparation (Urospasmon cum phenazopyridino), with a daily dose of 150 mg nitrofurantoin + 450 mg sulphadiazin. Therapeutic results and side effects are discussed. Special notice is paid to the iatrogenic infections and the necessity of thorough observation to keep this additional risk for the mostly badly ill patients under control.
