ABSTRACT
The clinical picture of acute dysentery caused mainly by Shigella sonnei was studied in 160 children: 50 children were treated with monomycin tablets and for the treatment of 110 children monomycin in the form of amorphous powder in bottles was used. The treatment was carried out in accordance with the official instructions. Coincidence of the recovery time in the both groups was registered. When the patients were treated with monomycin tablets, 5 and 15-34 per cent of the antibiotic a daily dose was excreted with the urine and excrements respectively. It was concluded that monomycin in the from of tablets was more convenient in the treatment of children.
