Combined Therapy in Pulmonary Tuberculosis

GEORGE G. ORNSTEIN M.D., F.C.C.P. and LAWRENCE LERCHER M.D., F.C.C.P.

1. A simultaneous combination of collapse therapy (pneumothorax or pneumoperitoneum) and isoniazids 8 mgs. per kilogram, streptomycin one gram two times weekly if tolerated, and PAS 12 gms. or less if tolerated, is the best method of using isoniazids and its synergists.

2. It is not necessary to give up the art of collapse therapy which has served us so long and so well. [See Table II, Figures 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 in Source PDF.]
