Insufficient doses and premature withdrawal of drugs cause the development of a chronic form of brucellosis in the future. Antibiotics must be given continuously.
With this form, it is necessary to prescribe antibiotics in fairly large doses.
Tetracycline - 0.5 g every 6 hours for 3-6 weeks, during the first 2 weeks, in addition, streptomycin was used (intramuscularly) at a dose of 1 g every 12 hours. Tetracycline is contraindicated in pregnant women and children under 8 years of age.
If it is impossible to use the above scheme, you can prescribe biseptol (co-trimoxazole) 6 tablets per day for 4 weeks.
The combination of biseptol rifampicin (900 mg per day) gives the best results. When conducting a full course, relapses are rare. Vitamins are prescribed.
Casino in chronic forms of brucellosis were ineffective. The main role in these forms is played by the appointment of drugs with nonspecific and specific desensitizing effects. In chronic forms, vaccine therapy is most effective, which is not only a desensitizing measure, but also stimulates the immune system.
