Single tablet treatment of urinary tract infections in women.

Non-pregnant women presenting to a family practice clinic with symptoms of lower urinary tract infection were randomly assigned to a single dose of one, two or three tablets of sulfadiazine/trimethoprim 410 mg/90 mg. All three regimens were equally effective and caused no serious side effects. Overall cure rates were 93% at seven days and 81% at 14 days. Single tablet treatment with appropriate follow-up appears to be an effective treatment of lower urinary tract infections in non-pregnant women.
