A model of ascending urinary tract infection due to an isolate of Escherichia coli was developed in normal and streptozotocin-induced mice to compare the efficacy of norfloxacin and trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole. Norfloxacin and trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole both were effective in reducing the number of colony forming units of E. coli from the kidneys of normal experimentally-infected mice, although norfloxacin yielded a greater quantitative reduction of colony forming units. Norfloxacin was substantially more effective than trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole in reducing the number of colony forming units from kidney homogenates when the test animals were diabetic. This study supports the initiation of clinical trials to evaluate norfloxacin in diabetic patients.
