  • Title: [Ofloxacin versus pipemidic acid and co-trimoxazole].
    Author: Wittenberger R.
    Journal: Infection; 1986; 14 Suppl 1():S93-6. PubMed ID: 3514474.
    Abstract:
    In a study comprising 116 patients at a hospital for general care, ofloxacin was tested in various doses and at various time intervals against pipemidic acid (for infections of the lower urinary tract) and co-trimoxazole forte (for infections of the upper urinary tract). Ofloxacin proved superior to the other drugs both clinically and, particularly, bacteriologically. Of 77 patients treated with ofloxacin, only one complained of diarrhoea as a side-effect of the drug.
