If a disease is caused by a culture which is not susceptible to macrolith medicaments, Sumamed can be used as the second medicine taking into account the fact that the majority of genital infections are a combination of infections. As for those cases when the treatment needs to be started before receiving the results of a bacteriological analysis, Sumamed should be the medicine of the first choice. I think that economic effectiveness of a medicine is defined by its medical effectiveness with a short treatment course, lack of negative side-effects and good tolerance. My principle says that to save money during a course of treatment by taking cheap medicaments is more expensive. A highly effective, convenient treatment that enables to improve a quality of a patient s life during a course of taking the medicine cannot be cheap.
Effective technologies are expensive.
Urino-genital infections and hlamidios especially are very widely spread. These are the results of the above-mentioned economy . The usage of such highly effective medicaments as Sumamed seems expensive but in the long run it turns out to be economically effective for an individual patient as well as for the whole society. It is usually very difficult in the practical medicine to discover a bacterial pathogen before starting the treatment. The optimal schemes of a starting antibacterial therapy are developed on the bases of retrospective analysis which shows that the pathogens of pneumonia and bronchitis are pneumococcus, hemaphilic bacillus, streptococci.
