Infections due to Nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) have been recognized increasingly worldwide. We report 10 cases of nontuberculous mycobacteria isolated from sputa, being eight cases of M. szulgai, one of M. gordonae, and one of M. abscessus. All but one M. abscessus-isolating case was developed in the same period in one episode. Therefore, it is likely to be contaminated. NTM is a possible pathogen and infections due to NTM are clinically important. Thus, correct identification and determination of clinical significance should be verified.

10.Antitussive and mucoactive drugs.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2013;56(11):1025-1030
Cough is the most frequent complaint from medical patients even though coughing is a protective reflex. The principle of relief from a cough is treatment of its underlying disease. However, when the treatment of the cause of coughing is not effective, cough suppression therapy just to relieve the symptom may be attempted. Antitussives and mucoactive drugs are used for this purpose. Unfortunately, the currently available agents are not consistently effective and frequently have intolerable side effects. Therefore, understanding the side effects and mechanism of action of these agents is definitely needed. This review provides a summary of the currently available antitussives and mucoactives.
