Resumo

Nine adult subjects of vesical schistosomiasis were given intensive treatment. Each received intramuscularly a total dose of 34 ml. of repodral distributed in three injections daily at 3-hour intervals over a period of 3 days. The results of the treatment are given as regards the urine findings, E.C.G. changes, reactions and other special investigations. The E.C.G. changes are discussed in particular with reference to the findings reported by some other investigators. Our recommendation is to avoid intensive treatment in patients who are found to be suffering from cardio-vascular disease.
