Intrathecal streptomycin and cerebrospinal glucose estimation.
The determination of cerebrospinal fluid glucose is important in the diagnosis and prognosis of tuberculous meningitis. The restoration to normal of the characteristically low glucose values is considered to reflect the success of streptomycin therapy. Intrathecal injection of the antibiotic is usually employed in tuberculous meningitis, and attention has been drawn to the fact that streptomyci...
متن کاملTuberculous meningitis treated with streptomycin and isoniazid without intrathecal therapy.
Isoniazid given orally readily and rapidly diffuses into the cerebrospinal fluid in health and disease (Fletcher, I952, 1953) and probably, also, gains access to tubercle bacilli within the cells. Adequate bacterio-static level of the isoniazid in the cerebrospinal fluid was found in both lower and higher doses. Throughout the illness Ritchie (I953) showed that isoniazid is more diffusible in t...
متن کاملDeafness in tuberculous meningitis with a comparison between streptomycin, (calcium chloride complex) and dihydrostreptomycin.
The successful clinical results obtained with dihydrostreptomycin in clinical and experimental tuberculosis and its comparative lack of neurotoxicity as reported by Edison et al. (1948), Feldman et al. (I948), Hinshaw et al. (1948) and Hobson et al. (I948) led to the general introduction of this drug into the therapy of tuberculosis. We have been using this drug since I949, but in concert with ...

Streptomycin is not absorbed from the alimentary tract and, therefore, it must always be given intramuscularly as well as directly, where possible, into the spaces which it is desired to render free from bacteria. The drug is excreted by the kidney. After intramuscular injection an adequate blo...
