[Antibiotic therapy of Salmonella infection in infants during the first year of life and methods if its correction].

The efficacy of antibiotic therapy of salmonellosis was studied and functional activity of peripheral blood leukocytes from electron microscopic data was estimated in 200 infants. It was shown that the use of antibiotics in combination with immunostimulants such as leukocyte mass, lysozyme and prodigiozan in complex therapy of salmonellosis in infants had a favourable effect on both the time course of the clinical signs and the functional state of the neutrophil leukocytes. The duration of the treatment decreased by 6.14 +/- 0.34 days and repeated isolation of the pathogen from the host appeared to be less frequent.
