A microdilution method was used to test 11 antifungal drugs against clinical isolates of Fusarium thapsinum and three different phylogenetic clades of Fusarium verticillioides that were characterized by sequencing a region of the beta-tubulin gene. Terbinafine was the most-active drug against both species, followed by posaconazole against F. verticillioides.

The activities of 10 combinations of antifungal agents against 25 clinical isolates of Scopulariopsis brevicaulis were tested by the checkerboard technique. An average indifferent effect was detected for all combinations. Synergy was observed for some isolates and combinations, particularly with posaconazole-terbinafine (68% of strains), amphotericin B-caspofungin (60%), and posaconazole-caspof...
