Pharmazeutische Anwendungen
Effective drugs are available for a wide range of fungal infections, covering
most of the major systemic pathogens and providing a choice
for many conditions. In the more common superficial infections it
is possible to cure many patients with topical treatment, and the
details of administration are often more important than the choice
of agent. There are now few conditions for which there is no effective
treatment.
There are four main families of antifungal agents: the allylamines,
the azoles, the echinocandins and the polyenes. In addition, there is
a miscellaneous group of drugs that includes flucytosine, griseofulvin
and various agents that are used for topical treatment. Resistance,
although not a major problem, has been recorded with some azole
antifungals and with the echinocandins, usually in situations where
the drugs have been given for long periods of time in the face of persistent
infection.
