[The clinico-immunological efficacy of dioxidine in the combined treatment of acute abscessing pneumonias in persons who abuse alcohol].

Abstract

The results of clinico-immunologic studies of the efficacy of dioxidin in persons abusing alcohol have demonstrated that unlike antibiotics, dioxidin does not provoke any immunosuppressive disorders. It is recommended that dioxidin should be included into multimodality treatment of patients with acute lung abscesses, abusing alcohol.
