[Therapeutic activity of Oriprim in bronchopulmonary diseases]

A new chemotherapeutic drug oriprim was used for therapy of 36 patients with bronchopulmonary pathology. Its therapeutic efficacy was noted in 83.3% of the cases. In 6 patients oriprim therapy turned out to be ineffective as a result of early side-effects. The drug was effective in pneumococcal infection. In suspicion of anaerobic infection (B. fragilis, etc) oriprim was given in combination with metronidazole.
