title: [Effect of immunomodulator cycloferon on quality of life and psychoemotional state of patients with chronic active brucellosis subjected to complex pharmacotherapy].
abstract: Indices of the quality of life and parameters of the psychofunctional status of patients with chronic active brucellosis are presented and the clinical efficiency of immunomodulator cycloferon in a complex therapy of this disease is estimated for a group of 40 patients. Cycloferon was administered to 20 patients, while the control group of 20 other patients received only a traditional therapy. It is established that the chronic active brucellosis is accompanied by a considerable decrease in parameters of the quality of life. The administration of cycloferon on the background of a base therapy leads to improvement of the quality of life and the parameters of the psychoemotional status in comparison to those achieved with the traditional methods of therapy.
