ABSTRACT
A 3-day course of a new citrated formulation of nalidixic acid (Mictral) was assessed in fifty-four women presenting with acute uncomplicated cystitis. Over 96% of women with a significant Gram-negative bacteriuria were cured of the infection following a course of treatment. Only two relapses occurred in this group during the follow-up period. Relief of symptoms occurred in nearly 90% of infected patients and generally by the second day of treatment. Although the incidence of side-effects was about 20% they were not considered serious.
