Chemotherapeutic efficacies of a clofazimine and diminazene aceturate combination against piroplasm parasites and their AT-rich DNA-binding activity on Babesia bovis.

Recently, we reported that clofazimine (CF) has an anti-piroplasm activity, but it could not completely eliminate parasites in the host. The currently available anti-piroplasm drug, diminazene aceturate (DA), has sometimes been reported to have toxic side effects. In the present study, we evaluated the combination treatment with CF and DA against piroplasms both in vitro and in vivo.
