penicillin been found effective
in many types Of this disease.
but, also. the sulfonamide drugs
have been lifesaving in caring
for patients with pneumonia.
OF course, il is the doctor who
decides as 10 just what treat
ment 10 use according 10 the
type of pneumonia the patient
has.
Penicillin is effective in pneu-
monia when the pneumonia IS
due TO such germs as the pneu-
mococcus, staphylococcus or

combination OF these various
germs. Penicillin. however, Is
not effective when the pneu-
monia is OF the virus type. that

ganism so small that il can pass
through the openings in a porce-
lain filter.
THERE is also a germ known
i as the Friedlander' bacillus
which can produce pneumonia.
Penicillin is not effective
against this type of pneumonia.
