Abstract

Invasive candidiasis is a hospital-acquired infection with a high associated mortality.1 The antifungal drug armamentarium to manage patients with invasive candida infections is quite small and restricted to three drug families: the polyenes, the azoles, and the echinocandins. The Infectious Diseases Society of America and European Society for Clinical Microbiology Diseases international guidelines both support the use of echinocandins as first-line drugs for the treatment of invasive candida infections.
