[Treatment of female acute cystitis with a single dose of cefminox].

Abstract
Thirty six female patients with acute cystitis were treated with one shot intravenous injection of 1 g cefminox. Clinical efficacy was evaluated based on extent of subjective symptoms, pyuria and bacteriuria. Of 36 patients, an excellent efficacy was shown in 32 cases, moderate in 3 cases and poor in 1 case. This poor case was diagnosed as complicated urinary tract infection because of right vesicoureteral reflux. Therefore, the overall effectiveness rate of this treatment for acute uncomplicated cystitis in women was 100%. Single dose chemotherapy with an adequate antibiotic is considered a useful treatment for female acute cystitis.
