The patients included 9 boys and 10 girls from 11 months to 13 years old and they were given orally a dosage of 15.4-40.8 mg/kg/day for 3 to 12 days. Clinical efficacies were excellent in 2 cases, good in 13 cases, fair in 3 cases, unknown in 1 case, and the total efficacy rate was 83.3%. Loose stool in 1 case and mild diarrhea in another occurred as side effects of the drug, but no abnormal laboratory test values were found upon the treatment. |
