Abstract
A significant proportion of patients with Rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) develop oroantral fistulas. Due to the unclear efficacy of crushed delayed-release posaconazole tablets (DRPT) via nasogastric tube in this group of patients, clinicians often use inferior alternatives like posaconazole suspension. In this prospective study, we report good plasma concentrations (median, 2,639 ng/mL; interquartile range [IQR], 1,690 to 3,575 ng/mL; and range, 1,004 to 4,835ng/mL) and complete cure and survival at 3 and 6 months in 19 such patients.
