[Chemotherapy of tuberculosis].
In the last fifty years, chemotherapy of tuberculosis has achieved a great success in the treatment of the disease as well as well as in the shortening of the treatment period. This is due to the appearance of new and very effective antitubercular agents. The course of therapy, which twenty, thirty years ago or even earlier lasted two years or longer, today is reduced to nine months or less. The recommendations for protocol of tuberculosis therapy as suggested by World Health Organization as well as by English and American societies for control and tuberculosis therapy are reported in this paper.
