Multi drug therapy (MDT) is for the infection of Leprosy. MDT involves the simultaneous use of multiple antibiotics to treat leprosy effectively. This approach targets different strains of the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae, reducing the risk of drug resistance development. MDT typically includes drugs such as dapsone, rifampicin, and clofazimine, administered over several months to years depending on the severity of the infection. By using a combination of antibiotics, MDT helps to improve treatment outcomes, reduce the duration of therapy, prevent relapse, and minimize the spread of leprosy in affected populations.
