Abstract
A method of treatment for mesenteric adenitis in humans is provided. The method comprises the administration of antiviral agents comprising pharmaceutical derivatives of imidazole. Specifically, mesenteric adenitis is treated with orally administered dosages of metronidazole or cimetidene. When the treatment is with metronidazole, a preferred dosage for average sized adult humans is approximately 1,000 to 2,000 milligrams administered once a day. When the antiviral agent administered is cimetidine, the preferred dosage is 900 to 1,200 milligrams given two times a day. When either cimetidine or metronidazole are given, concurrent treatment with zinc is suggested as a method of speeding recovery.
