Single dose treatment for single lesion leprosy

Ref.:   Single dose treatment for single lesion leprosy (?)
From: Ahmad L., Karachi , Pakistan .



Dear Dr Salvatore ,

I am referring to LML October 30, 2010 by Dr Al Aboud Khalid from Mekkah.

A single dose treatment with rifampicin, ofloxacin and minocyclin for a single lesion leprosy which has been mentioned in Wikipedia is a new information for me. I would like to know its background, research and place where it is in practise.  Could somebody please help me on this.  I shall be grateful.

With regards,

Dr Latif Ahmad
