A preliminary investigation of the use of Terramycin alone and concomitantly with streptomycin in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis indicates that Terramycin may be valuable, particularly as an adjunctive chemotherapeutic agent, in delaying the emergence of bacterial resistance to streptomycin. Further clinical trials of Terramycin, especially in combination with streptomycin, appear warranted.
