Abstract:
Two groups of patients with chronic pulmonary tuberculosis are presented. The first group of 92 patients were unsuccessfully treated according to current principles of treatment of chronic, resistant pulmonary tuberculosis. In the second group of 11 patients, unsuccessfully treated according to current methods, a new combination of drugs was applied so that a drug of the aminoglycoside group or chinolon group (Amikacin 1000 mg every second day or Ciprofloxacin 750 mg daily) was added to conventional therapy. Applying such therapy during 4 months encouraging results have been obtained.
