b. Hospitalization

d. 6-week course of antibiotics Correct Answer Hospitalization


Oral antibiotics may be prescribed in mild cases of acute
pyelonephritis, characterized by the absence of nausea and
vomiting or signs of sepsis. First-line therapy includes
ciprofloxacin (Cipro) 500 mg two times daily for 7 days, or
ciprofloxacin extended-release (Cipro XR) 1,000 mg daily for 7
days, or levofloxacin (Levaquin) 750 mg daily for 5 days.

Hospitalization may be indicated, depending on the patient's
ability to maintain adequate fluid intake and to tolerate oral
antibiotics, along with the severity of the symptoms and
evidence of bacteremia. Hospitalization of patients who are
pregnant, vomiting, or dehydrated should be strongly
considered. Likewise, the patient's degree of systemic illness
(bacteremia or urosepsis), age, history of chronic disease, or
nonadherence to therapy may lead to the assessment that
hospitalization is necessary. Ninety- five percent of patients
demonstrate a good response within 48 hours to IV antibiotic
treatment and may be discharged on appropriate oral
medication, once urine culture and antibiotic sensitivity results
are available and subsequent antimicrobial therapy may be
narrowed in spectrum.
