The treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis with prolonged streptomycin, sodium P-aminosalicylate and isoniazid

Abstract

The results obtained in a personal series of 75 patients treated with chemotherapy alone (streptomycin, PAS and isoniazid) for at least one year are reported.

At the end of the observation period 69 patients (92 per cent.) were “quiescent,” 5 were “active” and 1 was dead. No patients relapsed after completing treatment.
