Popis: While echinocandins remain the preferred antifungal therapy for candidemia, bloodstream infections caused by C. auris , C. glabrata , or, at a lesser extent, C. parapsilosis may be difficult to treat with these antifungal agents. This is in view of the high propensity of the above-mentioned species to develop antifungal resistance or tolerance during treatment.
