Mutations in TAC1B: a Novel Genetic Determinant of Clinical Fluconazole Resistance in Candida auris

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Candida auris has emerged as a multidrug-resistant pathogen of great clinical concern. Approximately 90% of clinical C. auris isolates are resistant to fluconazole, the most commonly prescribed antifungal agent, and yet it remains unknown what mechanisms

Fluconazole Monotherapy Is a Suboptimal Option for Initial Treatment of Cryptococcal Meningitis Because of Emergence of Resistance. [PDF]

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Cryptococcal meningitis is a lethal disease with few therapeutic options. Induction therapy with fluconazole has been consistently demonstrated to be associated with suboptimal microbiological and clinical outcomes. Exposure to fluconazole causes dynamic

Fluconazole-resistant Candida parapsilosis: A new emerging threat in the fungi arena

open access: yesFrontiers in Fungal Biology, 2022
Candida parapsilosis is a leading cause of invasive candidiasis in southern Europe, Latin America and Asia. C. parapsilosis has been mostly considered susceptible to triazoles, but fluconazole resistance is on the rise in some countries.

Effect of fluconazole dose on the extent of fluconazole-triazolam interaction. [PDF]

open access: greenBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1996
1Azole antimycotics interact with the short acting hypnotic triazolam. The effect of fluconazole dose on the extent of fluconazole‐triazolam interaction was investigated in a double‐blind, randomized cross‐over study of four phases. 2Eight healthy volunteers received either 50 mg, 100 mg or 200 mg (400 mg on day 1) of fluconazole or placebo orally ...

Effect of fluconazole prophylaxis on Candida fluconazole susceptibility in premature infants [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2018
Objectives Extremely premature infants are at high risk of developing invasive candidiasis; fluconazole prophylaxis is safe and effective for reducing invasive candidiasis in this population but further study is needed. We sought to better understand the
