_RENAL FAILURE _
The use of trimethoprim in patients with creatinine clearance of less

In the treatment of acute urinary tract infection due to susceptible

for longer than 7 days.
To ensure maximal urinary concentration it may be advantageous to take
the dose before bedtime. The dose may
be taken with some food to minimise the possibility of
gastrointestinal disturbance.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
ALPRIM should not be given to patients with a history of trimethoprim
hypersensitivity.
Patients with severely impaired renal function (creatinine clearance

ALPRIM unless the plasma concentration of trimethoprim is monitored
repeatedly during treatment.
