Serious fungal infections are rising due to immunosuppression and AIDS. This review explores new and improved antifungal drug delivery methods beyond traditional routes. Advances aim to enhance treatment efficacy for clinicians.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Mycology
  • Pharmacology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Increasing incidence of serious fungal infections in immunocompromised patients.
  • Rising prevalence of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) pandemic.
  • Advances in critical care medicine leading to greater patient survival but increased infection risk.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent advances in antifungal drug delivery routes.
  • To discuss improvements in traditional antifungal administration methods.
  • To provide a comprehensive overview organized by route of administration.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent developments in antifungal drug delivery.
  • Analysis of alternative and improved traditional administration routes.
