Azole Resistance in Candida Spp.
Nippon Ishinkin Gakkai Zasshi, 2003 The emergence of azole-resistant Candida spp. is a significant problem after long-term treatment of recurrent oropharyngeal candidiasis in HIV-infected patients. Several mechanisms can cause this resistance. An important mechanism of azole resistance is reduced intracellular accumulation of the drug.
