Text B. The Treatment of Lobular Pnenmonia

On the first day of the disease the patient was administered a 2 gr dose of norsulphazol which was followed by a 1 gr dose every four hours during that day. The patient had been receiving 1 gr of this drug every six hours for the following 10 days when he began to feel better. In addition to norsulphazol the patient had been receiving streptomycin in doses of 500, 000 units twice daily during a period of 8 days. To improve the patient's sleep and the condition of his nervous system he had been taking bromide and luminal during the whole course of the disease until his discharge from the hospital. Cough and chest pain were relieved by the administration of codein, cough mixture, cups and other necessary procedures.

On the third day after the return of body temperature to normal the patient was allowed to walk a little. The doctor prescribed the patient the necessary physical exercises.

The patient had not any possible complications such as lung abscess or pulmonary gangrene.

As the findings of all the analyses and the temperature were normal the patient was discharged from the hospital in a week.
