[Current state of resistance of E. coli to trimethoprim in uncomplicated urinary tract infections in France].
CONCLUSION: The resistance rate of E. coli to TMP remains below 20%, the threshold for choosing a probabilistic treatment of a non-serious infection. Considering the good tolerance of TMP and its weak effect on the microbiota during a short treatment, one can propose TMP alone in the probabilistic treatment of simple acute cystitis.
