Abstract: | Standard treatments for visceral leishmaniasis (antimonials, amphotericin B and pentamidine) pose several problems. Failure of antimonials or severe toxicity is particularly troublesome in patients with renal insufficiency. We report a case of visceral leishmaniaisis and renal insufficiency successfully treated with fluconazole and allopurinol for 4 months. © 2006 Taylor & Francis. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/11499/4640 https://doi.org/10.1080/00365540500321405 |
