Abstract

Cycloferon was used to treat newly diagnosed, recurrent and long-standing pulmonary TB. The dose of 7,5 g combined with antibacterial therapy caused no complications. The effectiveness of this therapy based on the generally-accepted criteria was significantly higher than standard treatment but varied depending on the character of pathological process. It is recommended to use cycloferon in the intense phase of the basal treatment.
