Antifungal drug resistance.
The increasing incidence of invasive fungal infections is the result of many factors, including an increasing number of patients with severe immunosuppression. Although new drugs have been introduced to combat this problem, the development of resistance to antifungal drugs has become increasingly apparent, especially in patients who require long-term treatment or who are receiving antifungal pr...
متن کاملEfflux-mediated antifungal drug resistance.
Fungi cause serious infections in the immunocompromised and debilitated, and the incidence of invasive mycoses has increased significantly over the last 3 decades. Slow diagnosis and the relatively few classes of antifungal drugs result in high attributable mortality for systemic fungal infections. Azole antifungals are commonly used for fungal infections, but azole resistance can be a problem ...
متن کاملAntifungal Drug Resistance - Concerns for Veterinarians
In the 1990s, there were increased incidences of fungal infectious diseases in human population which might be due to increase in immunosuppressive diseases. But the major concern was increase in prevalence of resistance to antifungal drugs which were reported both in the fungal isolates of human beings and that of animal origin. In both animals and human beings, resistance to antimicrobial age...
متن کاملAntifungal drug resistance in Candida species.
Invasive Candida infections are well established infectious entities of immunocompromised or critically ill patients and are characterised by high morbidity and mortality. Owing to the common eukaryotic structure of fungi and humans, a limited number of antifungal drugs is available for therapeutic purposes. In this unsatisfactory scenario, the emergence of drug resistance represents an importa...
متن کاملNew update on molecular determinants of colistin resistance in bacteria
Colistin relates to the polymyxin group of antibiotics. This antibiotic is still used to destroy gram-negative bacteria as a last resort. However, resistance to this antibiotic has been reported and is appearing day by day. Not much information is available on the exact mechanisms of resistance to this antibiotic. Also, not enough information about pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics is avail...
