Augmentin (amoxycillin/clavulanate) was used in the treatment of 88 patients with mild and moderate infections of the urogenital organs. The drug was administered in a single dose of 375 mg thrice daily for 6 to 12 days. The renal function in 62 patients (70.5 per cent) was normal and in 26 patients (29.5 per cent) the chronic renal insufficiency latent stage was stated (the decrease of the glomerular filtration up to 55-70 ml/min). When augmentin was used before lithotripsy in 35 patients for 6 days, all the laboratory and clinical indices came to normal in 30 patients (85.7 per cent) and only in 4 patients (11 per cent) leukocyturia and in 1 patient bacteriuria persisted. When augmentin was used in 26 patients before adenomectomy or after transurethral resection for 7 to 9 days, all the indices came to normal in 13 patients (50 per cent) and in the other 13 patients leukocyturia persisted, while no bacteriuria was recorded. When augmentin was used in the treatment of 19 patients with pyelonephritis exacerbation during the postoperative period for 7 to 12 days, all the clinical and laboratory indices came to normal in 13 patients (68.4 per cent), leukocyturia persisted in 6 patients and bacteriuria persisted in 2 patients. When augmentin was used in the treatment of 8 patients with acute orchiepididymitis for 7 to 10 days, the clinical effect was stated in all the patients. As a rule, the drug was well tolerated by the patients.
