[Efficacy of cow's kumiss in the treatment of large intestine dysbacteriosis and its impact on tolerability of antituberculosis agents in patients with respiratory tract tuberculosis].

Dysbacteriosis of the large intestine is one of severe complications of long-term use of antituberculosis agents in the treatment of respiratory tract tuberculosis that results in a significant decrease of tolerability of antituberculosis agents, persistence of tuberculosis intoxication and slower involution of the tuberculosis process in the lungs. When the complex treatment with antituberculosis agents was accompanied by the use of cow's kumiss for correction of the large intestine dysbacteriosis, the intoxication signs disappeared in 12% of the patients in the main group, while in the patients of the control group the level of the intoxication syndrome increased twice. The rate of the tuberculosis lesions regression evident from the lung roentgenograms was 2.

[Large intestine dysbacteriosis and therapy efficacy in patients with respiratory tract tuberculosis in sanatoria].

Long-term chemotherapy of tuberculosis leads to dysbacteriosis of the large intestine, that significantly decreases tolerance of tuberculosis drugs, provokes persistence of tuberculosis intoxication and retards involution of tuberculosis process in the lungs. Recovery of the bifidoflora and lactoflora due to the use of an original sour-milk drink developed by the authors was stated in 65 and 55% of the patients respectively. Moreover, it promoted higher tolerance of the chemotherapeutics since its composition includes amino acids, vitamins B, C, D and E, enzymes and microelements.
