Acute and recurrent urinary tract infections in women presenting in primary practice Abstract. Acute and recurrent urinary tract infections in women of all age groups are becoming an increasing problem in primary care and medical practice. Symptoms can be relieved by a guideline-oriented acute therapy and a multimodal infection prophylaxis. The restoration of the body's natural defence mechanisms plays a central role. This article informs about the causes, the basic diagnostic examinations and the practical use of therapeutic and prophylactic measures.
