PATIENTS: Target infection is acute uncomplicated cystitis (AUC) which had satisfied the specifications of AUC Criteria by the UTI Committee of Japan and showed the excellent effects of an antimicrobial agent after a definite period of administration. Treatment period: Seven days; after 3 days' administration to evaluate the drug efficacy, patients shall take an additional 4 days' treatment. Interval of follow up proposed was 7 days. Evaluation of recurrence: Parameters of criteria are pyuria and bacteriuria. Recurrence: Pyuria greater than or equal to 10 WBCs/hpf and bacteriuria greater than or equal to 10(4)/ml. Evaluation of the day of recurrence: Evaluation should be made 14 days after the start of treatment. Urine sampling: After 7 days of treatment, midstream urine is collected and in cases with positive findings, catheterized urine should then be collected. Using these criteria it will be possible to evaluate and compare the ability of various antimicrobial agents to cure acute uncomplicated cystitis
