Abstract

Effective treatment of fungal infections depends on a proper selection of the antifungal agents. A number of medicines have been recently introduced into antifungal therapy differing by the chemical structure and mechanism of action. Antifungal resistance, toxicity, drug interactions and expenses limit current treatment strategies. The search for novel, more effective and less toxic antifungal drugs is in progress.
