Other studies have also reported similar results with good susceptibility rate of fluconazole.21 However, the results differ from some other studies.22 Amphotericin B was the most susceptible antifungal against all C.

"Amphotericin B (AmB) is the drug of choice for progressive and potentially life-threatening fungal infections of the abdomen and heart valves, fungal pneumonia, and leishmaniasis, a neglected tropical disease.

Since the HIV services were decentralised to lower level hospitals, most of them, including Lumumba and Kombewa hospitals, that the Nation contacted, did not have the drug in stock.PUBLIC HOSPITALSA study done in Kisumu County Hospital, Nairobi Rheumatology Clinic and Mater Hospital in 2017 involving 141 patients with HIV and cryptococcal meningitis revealed that, in public hospitals, amphotericin B is not regularly supplied and patients had to buy it.

Amphotericin B has broad antifungal activity and is commonly used to treat aspergillosis, a fungal pneumonia that is a common sequela in oiled waterfowl as well as other birds in wildlife rehabilitation.

The average duration of amphotericin B was 19 days.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antifungal effect of the combination of amphotericin B with black tea or white tea and the potential protective effect of black and white teas on amB cytotoxicity in red blood cells.

Visceral leishmaniasis can be successfully treated with liposomal amphotericin B.

The patient was treated with prolonged systemic liposomal amphotericin B, voriconazole, and an extended course of corticosteroids.

Since amphotericin B was "out-of-stock" and flucytosine is not available in Uganda, for induction phase, she was treated with high dose (1200mg) fluconazole and she also received daily therapeutic LPs over 72 hours for the management of her assumed increased intracranial pressure (deferred from her very severe headaches).

Amphotericin B deoxycholate was the first antifungal approved in 1958.

50 mg/kg/ antibiotics Amphotericin B and 50 mg/day flucytosine

Group C rabbits were given acute nephrotoxic single dose of amphotericin B deoxycholate.

AST YS 07 Cards were used as per to manufacturer's instructions, and results were evaluated for activity against fluconazole, voriconazole, caspofungin, micafungin, amphotericin B, and flucytosine.

The mainstay of treatment is antifungal therapy with an Amphotericin B, surgery, and correction of the underlying medical condition if possible.5 The highest mortality is seen with disseminated disease and the lowest is seen in infections confined to skin and subcutaneous tissue.8
