Analysis of Susceptibility and Drug Resistance of Antifungal Agents in Aspergillosis and Mucormycosis Patients: A Systematic Review

mycolabadmin

This comprehensive study analyzed how well five major antifungal drugs work against common disease-causing fungi like Aspergillus and Mucorales. Researchers reviewed 96 studies examining over 16,000 fungal samples to understand resistance patterns. The findings show that different fungi respond better to different drugs—for example, Aspergillus flavus responds well to voriconazole, while amphotericin B works best against other Aspergillus species. This information helps doctors choose the most effective treatments for fungal infections in vulnerable patients.
