| Disease | COMBINED TREATMENT WITH 100% DECOCTION OF TEA LEAVES AND 50% DECOCTION OF COPTIS WAS TRIED IN 16 CASES IN THE DYSENTERY ISOLATION UNIT. ALL CASES WERE FOUND TO BE REFRACTORY TO TREATMENT WITH CHLORAMPHENICOL,CHLORTETRACYCLINE AND OTHER ANTIBIOTICS. THE ORGANISMS ISOLATED WERE SHIGELLA SONNEI IN 7 CASES AND SHIGELLA FLEXNERI IN 8 CASES. THE RESULTS OBTAINED WERE: 11 CURED, 1 IMPROVED AND 4 FAILURES. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF 1 CASE WHICH SHOWED SLIGHT EXCITEMENT AS A RESULT OF MEDICATION, THERE WERE NO OTHER SIDE EFFECTS. USING IN VITRO TESTS IT WAS FOUND THAT WHEN TEA LEAVES AND COPTIS WERE USED IN COMBINATION, RESULTS WERE BETTER THAN WITH EITHER ONE SINGLY. THE DOSES BOTH OF 100% TEA LEAF DECOCTION AND 50% DECOCTION OF COPTIS WERE LISTED IN THE PAPER FOR DIFFERENT AGES OF PATIENTS. |
