Flucytosine is primarily used in combination with amphotericin B for the treatment of candida endophthalmitis and cryptococcal meningitis (30,31). MICs and minimum fungicidal concentrations (MFC) were as follows: amphotericin B 1 and >16 [micro]g/mL, flucytosine 64 and >64 [micro]g/ mL, itraconazole 0. Death rates did not differ between patients with CNS infection who received amphotericin B alone (59%) and patients with CNS infection who received amphotericin B plus flucytosine (44%). |
