Abstract
The emergence of trimethoprim (TMP) resistance in fecal flora was compared in patients with urinary tract infection treated with TMP or TMP-sulfamethoxazole. No significant differences were found in the occurrence of TMP-resistant fecal aerobic bacteria in the two treatment groups before and after treatment.
