          Abstract

          The incidence of infections due to Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) and Mycobacterium abscessus (MABS) is increasing worldwide. Current antimycobacterial agents are not sufficiently effective against nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and there is a need for new drugs. This study aimed to estimate the overall in vitro activity of clofazimine (CFZ) against MAC and MABS clinical isolates.
