Popis: Sulfisomidine and pertussis serum were used in the treatment of 21 patients with pertussis. Twenty of the patients were under six months of age and seven had bronchopneumonia. Therapeutic concentrations of the drug in the blood were obtained in 14 cases when it was given in dosage of 0.26 gm. per kilogram of body weight per 24 hours. The average stay in hospital was ten days. None of the patients died. Hematuria developed in one case but crystalluria was not concomitant and it abated promptly when fluid intake was increased.
