A Comparison of a 3-Day Course of Mictral with a 7-Day Course of Ampicillin in the Treatment of Urinary Tract Infection

This general practice study compared a 3-day course of a new preparation, Mictral, with a standard 7-day course of ampicillin in the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infection. Mictral achieved bacteriological cure in all infected patients by Day 4 while only 69% of infected patients in the ampicillin group were abacteriuric by Day 8. Symptomatic relief and the incidence of side-effects were similar for both groups. It is concluded that Mictral appears to be a useful addition to currently available therapy for urinary tract infection and merits further investigation.
