<![CDATA[Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) This is an infectious disease characterized by the growth and multiplication of bacteria in the urinary tract. The most common etiology in more than 80% of uncomplicated UTI cases is Escherichia coli, and less than 50%, Proteus spp, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter spp, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus, and Enterococcus. Candida species are a common cause of urinary tract infection in patients with severe chronic catheterization. The clinical forms of UTI are classified according to age, intensity of inflammatory response, and location of urinary tract infection. Children aged 2 months to 2 years with a UTI require special attention because they are likely to have atypical clinical presentations, invasive urine specimen collection, and kidney injury. This study aims to determine the dosage and composition of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin in patients with urinary tract infections at Grandmed Lubuk Pakam Hospital for the period November-December 2021. The method used is a descriptive assessment because it aims to provide an objective picture or description of the situation. Data collection was carried out retrospectively.
