Abstract

One of the most important problems in phthisiology remains low indicators of the effectiveness of treatment of tuberculosis patients, especially with drug-resistant MBT. This article presents a review of the possibilities of adjuvant therapy in improving the effectiveness of complex anti-tuberculosis treatment. Adjuvant treatment is prescribed in addition to the anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy and is necessary in the work of a phthisiologist. More than one hundred studies were analyzed, proving that the use of the adjuvant Glutamyl-Cysteinyl-Glycinum dinatrium (Glutoxim) in the complex treatment of tuberculosis is safe and effective.
