Combination therapy
Combination therapy or polytherapy is the use of more than one medication or other therapy. Typically, these terms refer to using multiple therapies to treat a single disease, and often all the therapies are pharmaceutical. 'Pharmaceutical' combination therapy may be achieved by prescribing/administering separate drugs, or, where available, dosage forms that contain more than one active ingredient. Polypharmacy is a related term, referring to the use of multiple medications. Sometimes "polymedicine" is used to refer to pharmaceutical combination therapy. Unfortunately, most of these kinds of terms lack a universally consistent definition, so caution and clarification are often advisable.
