[Improved technology of chemotherapy of pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by other diseases].

Ample clinical material obtained in Yakutia was used to study the efficiency of combined treatment in patients with disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis concurrent with gastrointestinal and respiratory diseases. At the same time it was justifiable to employ alternatives to deliver antituberculous agents to the lesion focus (rectal dropwise administration, phono- and photophoresis of isoniazid, endobronchial colloid diluted rifampicin, and activated silver water diluted antituberculous drugs) with additional biophysical exposure. This made this group of patients have much better antituberculous agent intolerance, which increased nonbacterial isolation rates and closed decay cavities as compared with conventional methods for administering antituberculous agents.
