USE OF AUREOMYCIN AND PENICILLIN IN THE TREATMENT OF RUBEOLA IN THE PRE-ERUPTIVE AND EARLY ERUPTIVE PHASE

SAMUEL KARELITZ M.D.1, HARRY KING M.D.1, BERNARD CURTIS M.D.1, and M. WECHSEL M.D.1

1 The Willard Parker Hospital, New York City.

Neither aureomycin nor penicillin given to children with pre-eruptive rubeola or begun on the first day of rash seems to have any definite therapeutic effect on the course of the primary disease.

The temperature dropped earlier in the patients treated with aureomycin or penicillin than in the untreated control group.

Aureomycin and penicillin were effective against otitis media and pneumonia present on admission and on the complications which developed during the disease.

Aureomycin and penicillin are useful in the prevention and cure of secondary infection in rubeola.
