Abstract

Combination therapy has been proposed as an ideal strategy to reduce drug toxicity and improve treatment efficacy in Chagas disease. Previously, we demonstrated potent in vivo anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity of voriconazole. In this work, we aimed to study the synergistic effect of voriconazole (VCZ) and benznidazole (BZ) both in vitro and in vivo models of T. cruzi infection using the Tulahuen strain. Combining VCZ and BZ at fixed concentrations, the inhibitory concentration 50% (IC
