Abstract
Thirty-seven patients suffering from genitourinary infections were treated with combination of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim in ratio 5 : 1. Good clinical and bacteriological responses were observed in 35 of the 37 patients.
In 15 patients bacteriological investigation was done along with the clinical observation. Seven out of 8 patients with Escherichia coli infection, all of 4 patients with Cloaca infection and each one patient with Staphylococcus aureus, Proteus and Klebsiella infection responded satisfactorily to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim combination therapy as evidenced by a negative urine culture following treatment.
