Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections worldwide. A significant number (up to 60%) of consultations with a specialist is associated with acute or recurrent cystitis. 20-25% of women suffer from acute cystitis over the life course, one in three of them has a disease relapse within a year. The disease leads to the patients’ reduced quality of life, adversely affecting social and labour activity. The goal of treating an uncomplicated UTIs is to eliminate the symptoms, eradicate the pathogen, prevent relapse, prevent complications and improve the quality of life of the patient. According to the Russian clinical recommendations for urology, fosfomycin trometamol, furazidin potassium salt with magnesium carbonate and nitrofurantoin are the drugs of choice. Given the high efficacy and safety of the fosfomycin oral form, as well as the single-dose antibacterial drug regimen, this medical agent has several undeniable advantages: it is most convenient for the patient (which contributes to its compliance), reduces the cost of treatment, and decreases the possibility of side effects compared with longer antibiotics regimen.
