De publicerede data viser, at den ansøgte maksimale dosis på 400 mg intravenøst tre gange dagligt resulterer i bedre forebyggelse af resistensudvikling uden væsentlig forøgelse af bivirkningerne ved behandling af alvorlige og livstruende infektioner i andre organsystemer, og disse data giver ikke anledning til at slutte, at denne gunstige benefit/ risk- profil vil være væsentligt anderledes ved behandling af komplicerede urinvejsinfektioner
From the published data, which have demonstrated for the proposed maximum dose 400 mg intravenous three times daily as a maximum dose, a superior prevention of antibiotic resistance without a significant increase in adverse reactions in serious and life-threatening infections of other organ systems, there is no reason to conclude that this favourable risk/ benefit profile would differ significantly in the treatment of complicated UTIs.
