A Study of Oral Administration of Multiple-Drug-Resistant Streptococcus Fecalis to Healthy Man

Abstract

In the course of oral administration of the medicine consisting of live multiple-antibiotics-resistant streptococcus fecalis to healthy men, those organisms were frequently found alive in their feces.
Thereby, untoward symptoms, subjective or objective, such as disorder of defecation or abnormalities in stool findings, have not been encountered at all.
Furthermore, in the course of combined administration with several kind of antibiotics used, the intestinal bacterial alteration-an well-known phenomenon which is said to frequently occur under the influence of antibiotics-has never been observed yet.
