[Increase in efficacy of antibiotic therapy of anthrax under experimental conditions].
The results of experimental therapy of antraxis infected mice with cefazoline (kefzol) and ampicillin incapsulated into liposomes are presented. Protective activity of the same free antibiotics combinated with amixine and leukinferone was evaluated also. Treatment with liposomal cefazoline enhanced mice survival upto 60 per cent, and life period upto 1.3 +/- 0.3 days. After liposomal ampicillin administration for 3 times the same indices were 60 per cent and 6.5 +/- 0.9 days, after 2 times administration--80 per cent and 14 +/- 1.8 days when compared to the groups of the animals treated with free antibiotics. It was shown that administration of ampicillin with amixine or with leukinferone provided enhanced mice survival upto 20 per cent, administration of cefazoline with leukinferone--upto 30 per cent.
