| Otherwise healthy participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply: Age
 1.The participant is ≥12 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent/assent and has a body weight ≥40 kg.
 Note: Although participants as young as 12 years may enroll in the study, study sites must follow their institutional ethics committee and local country/national regulatory guidelines and enrollment will be contingent upon such approvals regarding the allowed lower age limit for clinical study participants.
 Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics
 2.The participant has 2 or more of the following clinical signs and symptoms of acute cystitis with onset ≤96 hours prior to study entry: dysuria, frequency, urgency, or lower abdominal pain (see Appendix 5).
 3.The participant has nitrite or pyuria (>15 WBC/HPF or the presence of 3+/large leukocyte esterase) from a pretreatment clean-catch midstream urine sample based on local laboratory procedures.
 Sex
 4. The participant is female.
 Contraceptive use should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
 A female participant is eligible to participate if she is a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) who is not pregnant as confirmed by a high sensitivity urine pregnancy test at Baseline (Day 1) regardless of current or prior contraception use or abstinence, is not breastfeeding, or is not a WOCBP.
 Note: Pregnancy testing requirements, contraceptive guidance, and WOCBP definitions are provided in Appendix 2 and Appendix 6.
 Additional requirements for pregnancy testing during and after study intervention are located in Appendix 6.
 The investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual history, and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an early undetected pregnancy.
 Informed Consent
 5.The participant is capable of giving signed informed consent/assent as described in Appendix 3 which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF)/assent form and in this protocol.
