ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a unique approach for the diagnosis and management of infections by Chlamydia species, particularlyC. pneumoniae. The invention is based, in part, upon the discovery that a combination of agents directed toward the various stages of the chlamydial life cycle is effective in substantially reducing infection. Products comprising combination of antichlamydial agents, novel compositions and pharmaceutical packs are also described.
