Interactions of itraconazole with amphotericin B in the treatment of murine invasive candidiasis.
The interactions of amphotericin B and itraconazole were studied in murine invasive candidiasis. Candida albicans-infected mice were treated for 10 consecutive days, 24 h after infection. Survival was monitored over 30 days and kidney cultures were done. Mice treated with amphotericin B (0.2 mg/kg/day intraperitoneally) or itraconazole (100 mg/kg/day by oral gavage in two divided doses/ day) ha...
متن کاملInteractions between triazoles and amphotericin B in treatment of disseminated murine infection by Fusarium oxysporum.
We have evaluated and compared the efficacies of high doses of amphotericin B (AMB; 3 mg/kg of body weight/day), voriconazole (60 mg/kg), and posaconazole (PSC; 100 mg/kg) alone and combined in a murine model of disseminated infection by Fusarium oxysporum. The combination of AMB with PSC showed the best results, prolonging the survival of mice and reducing their organ fungal loads. This combin...
متن کاملTreatment of murine invasive candidiasis with amphotericin B and cilofungin: evidence for enhanced activity with combination therapy.
The in vivo interactions of cilofungin, an echinocandin antifungal agent, and amphotericin B, a polyene derivative, in a murine model of disseminated candidiasis have been investigated. While single therapy with either drug alone prolonged survival of infected mice, kidney colony counts were not appreciably reduced. In contrast, combination therapy, especially at higher doses of both drugs, res...
متن کاملEfficacy of cilofungin alone and in combination with amphotericin B in a murine model of disseminated aspergillosis.
Cilofungin, amphotericin B, and a combination of the two drugs were compared in a model of aspergillosis in immunocompetent mice in three experiments. Cilofungin was equivalent to amphotericin B in preventing death and eradicating cerebral aspergillosis, but it did not sterilize the kidneys. This is the first demonstration of the in vivo activity of cilofungin against any fungus other than Cand...
متن کاملDisseminated histoplasmosis successfully treated with amphotericin B.
A 61-year-old woman presented with malaise, intermittent fever, weight loss, and epigastric pain. Histoplasma capsulatum was eventually isolated from a liver biopsy and from the bone marrow and the patient was successfully treated with amphotericin B.
