We had comparative studies the effect of comblined therapy of intravenous human immuneserum globulin and antibiotics in the treatment of various infectious diseases from October 1979 to March 1980.
The following results were obtained.
1. Total 37 cases including 24 male and 13 female and age disributions were from 1 month
to 2 years old.
2.Intravenous drip infusions were ranging 0.5gm (minimum) to 1.5gm (maximum) in total dose,with 100??/??.
3.Most favorable effects (response) were observed to pertussis, hepatitis, mumps and measles, and less effective for pneumonia, sepsis, typhoid fever, and M.C.L.S.
4.None of the side effects or complications were observed in our study cases.
5.Prophylactics as well as therapeutic use of intravenous immune serum globulin are highly recommended for certain infections such as pertussis, hepatitis, measles, mumps, and bacterial infections combined with antibiotics.
