  • Title: Benefits of combination therapy confirmed.
    Author: Cheng B.
    Journal: PI Perspect; 1995 Dec; (no 17):3-4. PubMed ID: 11363111.
    Abstract:
    Two large studies, Delta and ACTG 175, comparing single drug antiviral treatment to combination therapy, are discussed. Three tables supply data showing mortality rates between patients receiving AZT monotherapy and AZT plus either ddI or ddC, and ddI monotherapy. All the combination therapies show lower mortality rates than AZT monotherapy. Based on these results, AZT monotherapy as a standard of practice should not continue.
