Popis: Recurrent tuberculosis was treated in hospital in 86 patients, 82.7% of whom had destructive disease, while 84.0% disseminated the bacteria. Combined chemotherapy included 4 tuberculostatic drugs: 10% isoniazid (7 mg/kg iv drip), streptomycin (0.5 g intramuscularly), rifadin (0.6 g orally) and tisamid (25-30 mg/kg orally). The drugs were given twice a week under the intermittent regimen in combination with 10% isoniazid (7 mg/kg) and streptomycin (0.5 g) inhalations. During a mean hospital stay of 6.5 months disappearance of destruction and discontinuation of the bacilli dissemination were achieved in 91.1% and 93.9% of patients, respectively, suffering from infiltrative and disseminated tuberculosis.
