Abstract
The presence of antibodies to rifampin was determined in the sera of patients with tuberculosis on daily treatment 1 day after discontinuation of treatment, 1 wk later, 3 wk later and 8 wk later. The highest number of positive patients was found in the 3rd wk. [These results have relevance to allergic drug reactions in patients treated continuously vs. intermittently with rifampin.].This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
