Abstract

This presentation describes a clinical trial, conducted in Ethiopia, Kenya and Sudan, of the use of sodium stibogluconate (SSG), paromomycin or the 2 drugs in combination to treat visceral leishmaniasis (VL). It was found that such a trial was feasible in a rural setting, and there were comparatiively few safety concerns, but in eastern Sudan the dose of paromomycin was inadequate and had to be increased.
