| pubmed-article:6392071 | pubmed:abstractText | The evaluation of a 10-day 3 x 800 mg dosage regimen was equivalent for bacampicillin to oral ampicillin therapy (using 3 or 4 g respectively per day) in patients with primary UTI (n = 50) in clinical and bacteriological respect. The cure rate amounted to 69 and 68,4% respectively 2 days after therapy. No differences could be assessed after a 2-, 4- and 6-week period. Frequency of diarrhoea was 3 times as high in the ampicillin group as in the bacampicillin group. The rate of exanthema was also 2,5 times as high. No differences existed between eosinophilia and pain complaints in the upper gastrointestinal tract. 10 patients with liver function disturbances and renal impairment respectively tolerated well bacampicillin treatment. Only in the patients with impaired liver function rise of BUN and urea was found in 3 cases, not related to rise of creatinine. | lld:pubmed |
