Despite their toxic side-effects, nifurtimox and benznidazole are the only licenced drugs available for treatment of Chagas’ disease (Carabarin-Lima et al. 2013; Bermudez et al. 2016), with the latter being the first choice due to its lower side effects. Also, benznidazole has been implemented in the treatment of women before pregnancy in order to prevent/reduce vertical transmission (Carabarin-Lima et al. 2013; Murcia et al. 2013). Due to the lack alternatives, efforts have been directed towards implementing different treatment regimens in order to reduce toxicity, e.g. intermittent administration schedules, combination therapy and re-purposing of commercial drugs (Bermudez et al. 2016).
