Methods are provided for the use of gallium complexes of 3-hydroxy-4-pyrones in the treatment or prevention of infections caused by a prokaryote of the genus Mycobacterium, including but not limited to those infections due to M. tuberculosis and M. leprae. Methods are also provided for the treatment of immunocompromised patients infected by these and other mycobacteria species, including species (such as M. avium, M.aurum, and M. smegmatis) that are not pathogenic to immunocompetent individuals but may cause disease in immunocompromised patients. |
