| dc.description.abstract | Interactions of different drugs commonly used in multiple drug therapy were evaluated using both in vitro culture (cell-free as well as macrophage) system and mouse footpad. No additive effects were obtained in the in vitro system when dapsone was combined with either rifampicin or clofazimine, while a strong antagonism was observed when clofazimine was combined with rifampicin but not with rifabutin. In the mouse footpad system, a strong synergism was obtained when clofazimine was combined with either rifampicin or rifabutin, but significant antagonism was observed with the combination of clofazimine and dapsone. | en_US |
