[Experiences with Eusaprim suspension for adults in geriatric patients (author's transl)]

A new galenical formulation of the broad spectrum bactericidal agent, Eusaprim Suspension for Adults, has been tried in 121 geriatric patients presenting various infections, particularly of the urogenital tract, respiratory passages, gastrointestinal tract, as well as superinfections in decubitus, varicose ulcer and gangrene. No differences could be established compared to the tablet form. No side effects were observed and transient symptoms of intolerance were noted in only 4 cases. The suspension should be given preference in patients presenting difficulty in swallowing.
