Abstract
Single-dose therapy has been documented in defined groups of adults. For children, this type of treatment requires further investigation. Children to be studied should have uncomplicated UTI and the drugs should optimally have a broad antibacterial spectrum, a low tendency to select for resistant bacteria, and pharmacokinetic properties allowing maintenance of inhibitory antibiotic levels in urine for at least two to three days. Fosfomycin trometamol, trimethoprim and co-trimoxazole are oral antibacterials that may prove effective for single-dose therapy in children, as has been suggested in some studies.Entities:
