Pivotal Trial

Summary

This trial compares two pills, gepotidacin and nitrofurantoin, to see which is better for treating UTIs in adolescent and adult women. Both aim to kill the bacteria causing the infection but use different methods. Nitrofurantoin has been used for a long time for the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTIs).
