[A clinical evaluation of S-1108 in the treatment of pediatric infections].

1. S-1108 granules were administered to 22 children with bacterial infections (8 cases of bronchitis, 1 case of pneumonia, 3 cases of scarlet fever, 2 cases each of tonsillitis, pharyngitis, pertussis, purulent lymphadenitis and impetigo). 2. Clinical efficacies were excellent in 12 patients and good in 7, fair in 1, poor in 1 and unevaluable in 1 with an efficacy rate of 90.5%. 3. Neither side effects nor abnormal laboratory test values were observed. 4. There was no rejection of the drug during the therapy. From the above results, we consider S-1108 in granular form to be a useful and safe drug in the treatment of various bacterial infection in pediatric patients.
