[Current therapeutic problems in the treatment of infectious diarrheal diseases in children].

82 children, not older than 2 years, with enteritis are divided in two groups. Fluid- and electrolyte therapy is the same in both groups. In one group the usual antibiotic treatment was given, the other group get a combination drug: metabolic substances of physiologic enteric bacteria and a sulfonamide with very low absorption rate. The efficiency is nearly the same in both groups. In regard to the side effects of antibiotic therapy, it seems necessary to give preference to this compound drug.
