Risk of antibiotic treatment failure in premenopausal women with uncomplicated urinary tract infection.
This study compared treatment outcomes for various antibiotics in premenopausal women with uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs). The authors compared treatment with fluoroquinolones (first-line), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) (first-line), nitrofurantoin (first-line), narrow-spectrum β-lactams (non-first-line), and amoxicillin/ampicillin (non-recommended). Over 1.1 million patient outcomes were analyzed. The risk of treatment failure differed by the antibiotic type, with higher risk associated with TMP/SMX versus nitrofurantoin, and lower or similar risk associated with broad- versus narrow-spectrum β-lactams.
