The therapeutic use of tuberculin, as is known, has long occupied a prominent place among many methods of treating tuberculosis. However, the views and assessment of this drug among researchers still strongly diverge: while some authors completely deny the beneficial effect of using this drug, others widely use it, noting the good results obtained at the same time. One cannot but agree that such a disagreement depends a lot on the personality of the researcher himself, on the method of application of the agent, on the severity and stage of the disease, etc.
