Practical progress and new drugs for changing patterns of leishmaniasis.

P L Olliaro1, A D Bryceson.   

Abstract

The problems surrounding leishmaniasis are changing. An increase in travel, the Indian and Sudanese epidemics of visceral leishmaniasis, parasite resistance to antimony and the emergence of AIDS-related leishmaniasis have all increased the urgency for new drugs, and led to reappraisals of the old ones, as discussed here by Piero Olliaro and Anthony Bryceson.
