Combination therapy
In contemporary usage, the expression combination therapy most often refers to the simultaneous administration of two or more medications to treat a single disease, but the expression is also used when other types of therapy are used at the same time.Conditions treated with combination therapy include tuberculosisleprosycancermalaria, and HIV/AIDS.Combination therapy may seem costlier than monotherapies in the short term but causes significant savings: lower treatment failure rate, lower case-fatality ratios, slower development of resistance and consequently, less money needed for the development of new drugs.
