Sulphadiazine/trimethoprim once daily in maxillary sinusitis: a randomized double-blind comparison with
The Journal of International Medical Research
|January 1, 1981
Abstract:
In a randomized double-blind study fifty-four patients suffering from acute maxillary sinusitis were treated for 10 days with daily doses of sulphadiazine/trimethoprim (1 g) and sulphamethoxazole/trimethoprim (1.92 g), respectively. The efficacy was evaluated clinically at two follow-up visits. X-ray investigations were performed at admission and after the therapy. Of thirty-nine patients finally evaluated, thirty-seven showed a favourable result. After 6-8 days of therapy there was significant difference in cure rates in favour of sulphadiazine/trimethoprim (p less than 0.05) while the outcome as evaluated after treatment was similar for both drugs.
