[Impact of specific antituberculosis therapy on gastrointestinal tract in children].
Forty eight children aged 3 to 14 years treated at hospital for various tuberculous abnormalities were examined. The findings suggest that the use of antituberculosis agents in children with normal acid and pepsin production failed to have a noticeable effect on the gastrointestinal tract. Moreover, the 6-month use of highly and moderately effective antituberculosis agents produced no effect on the aggressive properties of gastric juice. It is necessary to prescribe enveloping and mucus-forming agents to reduce the potential side effect of tuberculostatic therapy.
