[A clinical assessment of the detoxifying effect of enterosorption in treating tuberculosis of the respiratory organs in children].

Abstract

Effects were studied of a complex treatment combined with enterosorption on the clinical course of tuberculosis of the respiratory organs in children. The results obtained showed that the use of enterosorbents "Carbolong" or "Carbosfer" against the background of the chemotherapy adopted leads to a significant shortening of periods of detoxication, which fact is manifested by a quicker and more marked positive dynamics of intoxicative symptomatology by comparison with those patients having received a conventional course of chemotherapy only. In a comparative evaluation of the natural enterosorbent Carbolong versus synthetic enterosorbent Carbosfer they were shown to be of similar therapeutic activity.
