[Acute cystitis do we always need antibiotics?].

We attempted to skip the antibiotic therapy in 17 patients with acute uncomplicated cystitis in the early time of presentation (up to 12 hours from the disease onset). All patients received ketoprofen (Flamax forte) 100 mg once daily for 5 days and the combined herbal preparation KanefronH 2 tablets t.i.d. for 1 month. In 82.4% of patients acute uncomplicated cystitis was cured without antibiotics; 17.6% of cases required additional administration of antibacterial drugs.
