    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1991; (9):38-40. PubMed ID: 1749755.
    Abstract:
    The effectiveness of tarivid, a new drug having a broad spectrum of antimicrobial action and antituberculous effect, was studied. The drug was given to 29 patients with newly detected destructive pulmonary tuberculosis and bacillary excretion. Eight patients had microbacterial resistance to streptomycin, rifampicin and isoniazid, 12 had tolerance to them, in 9 patients tuberculosis was complicated by a nonspecific inflammatory process. The course of treatment ranged from 3 weeks to 3 months. The drug was well tolerated. Its effect was manifested by reduction of intoxication, resolution of the inflammatory and pericavitary pulmonary lesions and bacilli absence. Tarivid can be considered an efficacious drug in the multimodality therapy of tuberculosis patients.
