Abstract:
:Multiple parasitic infections have become increasingly recognized as a result of improvements in laboratory diagnosis and a growing population of immunocompromised individuals. This review examines the principles of chemotherapy in groupings of multiple infections which are of particular clinical significance.

During the establishment pha...
