Ref.: Leprosy and
Leishmaniasis
From: Villarreal
Olaya M. E., La Paz, Bolivia
Dear
Dr. Noto,
I would like to thank very much the Authors of the comments I have
already received.
Herewith are the information requested by Prof. William Faber:-
1.
The
previous treatment was at the time the patient had cutaneous
leismaniasis.
2.
The
cutaneous leismaniasis is cured, but he has now a mucocutaneous
leismaniasis with spread to orofarigeal mucous membrane. He needs treatment with
Anfotericina B for 2 months, and I would like to know if I can
administer both Anfotericina and MDT for leprosy without to have
adverse effects or begin with Anfotericina.
3.
The
patient received the treatment 5 years ago and we do not know what
dosage of Glucantime he received.
Thanks a lot for your attention.
Dr (Ms) Villarreal
