Core Tip	There is an increasing resistance rate to the antibiotics recommended by current guidelines for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infection (UTI) and acute pyelonephritis. Therefore, alternative antibiotics need to be explored to increase the cure rate and improve the outcomes of patients. The aim of this systematic review is to investigate the efficacy and safety of different antibiotic therapy in treating complicated UTI and acute pyelonephritis. The use of novel antibiotics and combination antibiotic therapy can be considered in treating complicated UTI and acute pyelonephritis when resistance to recommended antibiotics occurs.
