Modern methods of treating cystitis
With bacterial cystitis, it is advisable to conduct a course of therapy with antimicrobial drugs that are well excreted in the urine and act on E. coli - the most common causative agent of cystitis.
When treating cystitis, especially recurrent cystitis, a single use of an antibiotic is not enough, since pathogenic microorganisms quickly develop resistance. For example, E. coli has acquired resistance to many types of antibiotics. As a result, the dosage of antibiotics has to be constantly increased.
