女子急性膀胱炎に対するPiromidic acid錠(250mg錠)の使用経験

Abstract

Piromidic acid tablets (250 mg tablet) were administered to 31 female patients with acute cystitis at a daily dose of 1.5 g for 3 to 12 days. Twenty-eight cases were treated successfully while three remained unimproved, and the efficacy rate was 90.3 %. Most of the infecting organisms were sensitive to piromidic acid but some of staphylococci were resistant to it as checked by the piromidic acid sensitivity disc (Showa). Gastro-intestinal disturbance was observed in 5 cases (16.1 %) as side-effects. The piromidic acid tablet is considered to be an effective drug on acute cystitis in female patients.
