A system of in- and outpatient treatment of the first detected patients with destructive pulmonary tuberculosis is proposed. The use of various types of intravenous intermittent chemotherapy in patients with focal, infiltrative, and disseminated tuberculosis provides a high efficiency in the inpatient period (the mean time of sputum negativation is 1.6 months, that of destruction closure is 3.1 months) and early (in 2 - 3 months) transfer of these patients to outpatient additional treatment by continuing etiotropic therapy that has turned out to be effective in hospital.
