Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) has the highest mortality among current infections. Despite being predominantly bacterial, one third of the global cases of CAP had a viral etiology, referring to approximately 100 million cases (2016). In 2019-2020, the respiratory virus Sars-Cov-2 alone caused 280 thousand deaths in 215 countries (until 12/05/2020, the vast majority with cases of pneum…
Leishmania species infect at least 10 million people worldwide. Cutaneous leishmaniasis, a disease that causes skin ulceration and deformities, has 70% of its global burden concentrated in the Americas, whereas Brasil contributes to more than 12%. Some protozoan species presented resistance to N-Methyl-D-glucamine, the most disseminated treatment for leshmaniasis. It is likely that resist…
Recent researches have shown that, in general, the combined treatment of antibiotics exhibits greater performance than monotherapies. In particular, the treatment of bacterial infections that may cause meningitis - a disease that presented nearly 110 thousands new cases between 2000 and 2010 in Brazil - showed superior results of the combined treatment with ceftriaxone and levofloxacin, w…
Exposure to bisphosphonates, antiangiogenic agents and radiotherapy may lead the dental patient to a medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). Bacterial infection plays an important role in the development of this disease; thus, oral formulations with antimicrobials may be prophylactic and therapeutic for such clinical condition. Nanotechnology can optimize the delivery of acti…
Meningitis is the acute inflammation of the meninges, which can be caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites. When untreated, the main complications are deafness, epilepsy, cognitive deficit and ultimately death. Ceftriaxone, ampicillin and vancomycin antibiotics are the ones frequently used in the treatment of this disease. However, some of these antibiotics have adverse effects a…
There are several medicines used as oral anesthetics available in the market, but they do not always achieve the necessary analgesia in cases of invasive dental procedures. Local anesthetics allow a reversible blockage of the conduction of nerve impulses, leading to no pain sensation, without affecting consciousness. Lidocaine is an important drug of this class, which was introduced to de…
