ANTI- FUNGAL DRUGS


Systemic Anti-Fungal Drugs are medicines taken by mouth or by injection to treat infections caused by a fungus.

Purpose
Systemic Anti-Fungal Drugs are used to treat infections in various parts of the body that are caused by a fungus. A fungus is a one-celled form of life. Unlike a plant, which makes its own food, or an animal, which eats plants or other animals, a fungus survives by invading and living off other living things. Fungi thrive in moist, dark places, including some parts of the body.

Description
Systemic Anti-Fungal Drugs, such as Fluconazole, Itraconazole, Ketoconazole, and Miconazole are available only by prescription. They are available in tablet, capsule, liquid, and injectable forms.
