Abstract
The ordinary administered drugs were examined in their influence upon B. S. R. The number of patients was 180 with Koha, Cepharanthin with 28 and 120 with promin.
1) Koha has no influence upon it in every type of leprosy when used in large or small doses.
2) Neither injected nor per os administered Cepharanthin produce no effect. Though B. S. R, is accelerated when the disease is aggravated by usage of this drug.
3) B. S. R. of the patient is quickened by injection of promin. This fact should be understood as a side reaction of this sulfone. When the disease progresses better after promin injection. B. S. R. of every leprosy type is recognized to come up nearer to the normal value.
