All patients with pyelonephritis should be treated empirically with antimicrobial therapy. Mild pyelonephritis may be managed with oral antimicrobial therapy, and an initial intravenous dose may be administered depending on local resistance patterns. Patients with dehydration, nausea, vomiting, or signs of sepsis should be admitted and should receive parenteral therapy. Medical therapies for pyelonephritis include fluoroquinolones, TMP-SMX, β-lactams, and aminoglycosides.
