[Ribostamycin in chronic and recurrent bronchopulmonary and urinary infections].

Results in the treatment of mostly Gram-negative infections of the respiratory apparatus (30 subjects) and the urinary apparatus (20 subjects) with ribostamycin are reported. These were regarded as good overall, as shown by the bacteriological findings. An extremely high sensitivity to the antibiotic was noted in isolated germs from both types of infection. This good response in vitro was matched by an equally encouraging bacteriological result in vivo.
