About the method of treatment of gonorrhea and its complications according to the method of O. Sachs'a

Abstract

O. Sachs, who for the first time proposed intravenous infusion of 20% sterile salicylic pagra solution for the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris, recommends this method to be used in the treatment of gonorrhea, especially its complications. In total, he conducted 103 cases of gonorrhoid urethritis in this way, in the overwhelming number complicated by epididymitis, funiculitis and prostatitis. In 72 patients, he used exclusively intravenous infusions of salicylic sodium, and in the rest, he also used local therapy before, during and after the infusions. He received excellent results from this method of treatment. Out of 72 patients who used only intravenous infusions of salicylic sodium, complete cure was achieved in 39 cases (54.16%), improvement in 32 cases (44.44%), and a negative result in only one. The duration of treatment on average was 21.5 days, each patient had 6.5 injections, with an average amount of salicylic sodium administered in 18.9 grams. With combined treatment, the percentage of complete cure increases even more, but with a larger number of injections and a longer duration period of treatment.
