Official title
Randomized Trial of Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole Versus Placebo Added to Standard Treatment of Uncomplicated Cellulitis in Emergency Department Patients
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary aim of this study is to quantify the effectiveness of Bactrim as additional therapy for the treatment of uncomplicated cellulitis in adults, by comparing: standard therapy plus Bactrim, versus standard therapy plus placebo. The primary hypothesis of this study is that, in light of increasing CA-MRSA prevalence, subjects treated with standard therapy plus Bactrim will have higher cure rates than those treated with standard therapy plus placebo.
