TACTICS OF TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH MUCOVISCIDOSIS INFECTED BY INTRACELLULAR PATHOGENS
The treatment tactics were studied in 84 patients with cystic fibrosis infected with intracellular pathogens: chlamydia, mycoplasma, herpetic viruses (Epstein-Barr virus and cytomegalovirus). Serological diagnostics was carried out using IFA and PCR methods for GVI and VCI with the purpose of timely detection of the full spectrum of infectious agents and formation of optimal complex treatment. The prolonged course of viferon was applied according to the scheme: two-fold rectal administration of viferon suppositories for 10 days in the dose, then for one month 3 times a week (against the background of standard therapy of the period of exacerbation of cystic fibrosis in patients infected with herpesviruses and intracellular pathogens (chlamydia and mycoplasmas).The period of remission in children after the prolonged course of viferon extended to 6 months, compared with the use of a standard 5-day viferon, where the remission persisted for 3 months.
