Infants with respiratory syncytial virus infection have low serum vitamin A levels. We treated 21 respiratory syncytial virus-infected children with 12,500 to 25,000 IU of oral vitamin A. Vitamin A levels were normalized at 6 h, and none of the children experienced vitamin A toxicity or exacerbation of respiratory illness. Vitamin A treatment of previously healthy respiratory syncytial virus-infected infants at these doses is safe and well tolerated.
感染呼吸道合胞病毒的婴儿血清维生素A水平较低。我们对21名感染呼吸道合胞病毒的儿童给予12,500至25,000国际单位的口服维生素A进行治疗。维生素A水平在6小时时恢复正常，且没有儿童出现维生素A中毒或呼吸道疾病加重的情况。以这些剂量对先前健康的感染呼吸道合胞病毒的婴儿进行维生素A治疗是安全的，且耐受性良好。
