Abstract
Several investigators have shown that combination of Isoniazid plus glucosamine hydrochloride gave the high blood concentration of Isoniasid. Thirteen patients with far advanced pulmonary tuberculosis were selected in order to observe the effects of Isoniayid-glucosaniine therapy during six months.
1) Roentogenorams reveald evidence of effects in 3 cases, no changes in 10.
2) Two cases with positive sputa at the beginning of treatment became negative.
3) No remarkable side reactions to the drug were observed.
In some severe cases, it seems to us that effects of this treatment are hopeful ones.
