Title: [Clinical effectiveness of short-term administration of norfloxacin in acute urethritis]. Author: Kihara K, Mizuo T, Fukui I, Oshima H, Goto S. Journal: Hinyokika Kiyo; 1986 Aug; 32(8):1157-60. PubMed ID: 3788741. Abstract: Thirty patients with acute urethritis were treated with short-term administration of norfloxacin. The drug was administered randomly in two regimens: Two 400 mg oral doses for a single day or three 200 mg oral doses for three days. For gonorrheal urethritis, the efficacy rates of one and three-day administrations were 75 and 90%, respectively. For non-gonorrheal urethritis, they were 75% each. No adverse effects were observed. The results indicate that short-term administration of norfloxacin is useful in the treatment of acute urethritis, especially for gonorrheal urethritis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
