An Overview of Drug Resistance in Protozoal Diseases

An Overview of Drug Resistance in Protozoal Diseases

Protozoan diseases continue to be a worldwide social and economic health problem. Increased drug resistance, emerging cross resistance, and lack of new drugs with novel mechanisms of action significantly reduce the effectiveness of current antiprotozoal therapies. While drug resistance associated to...
