Sulfa Drugs Show Remarkable Bowel Infection Results
The sulfa drugs have proven effective over six to seven years against bowel infections including dysentery. Sulfanilylguanidine and succinylsulfathiazole accumulate in the intestine, relieving pain within 24 to 48 hours, normalizing temperature and pulse in days, and reducing bowel movements to one or two within a week. They also aid pre and post large bowel surgery by lowering intestinal germs and preventing complications. Babies suffer from infectious diarrhea.
Treatment proposals for infant bowel infections prompt debate
Dr H N Bundesen summarizes a dangerous infant disorder with weight and fluid loss and fever. Dr Hughes Kennedy Jr of Alabama advocates immediate sulfanilylguanidine or Succinyleulfathiazole for infectious diarrhea in children, with sulfathiazole if no 24 hour improvement. He also notes possible value of vitamin B complex.
