    Abstract:
    Cefmenoxime (CMX), a new semisynthetic antibiotic, was administrated in 29 cases diagnosed as complicated urinary tract infection. All patients received drip injection of 2 g (twice a day) for 5 days. Clinical results were excellent in 1 patient (3.4%), good in 15 patients (51.8%) and poor in 13 patients (44.8%). Effectiveness rate was 55.2%. In bacteriological response, out of 35 strains 27 (77.1%) strains were eradicated and 8 (22.9%) strains persisted. As for side effects, except one case of transient diarrhea after administration, no noteworthy reactions were observed. Laboratory abnormalities attributed to CMX treatment consisted of 4 cases of elevated serum transaminase and 2 cases of elevated serum creatinine.
