Candidiasis
Candidiasis is a variety of clinical syndromes caused by species of the fungus Candida. It is usually divided into mucocutaneous candidiasis and invasive or deep organ candidiasis, based on the site of involvement. Mucocutaneous candidiasis includes oropharyngeal candidiasis or thrush, esophagitis, and vaginitis; invasive or deep organ candidiasis includes candidemia, chronic disseminated or hepatosplenic candidiasis, endocarditis, and endophthalmitis. In most patients, candidiasis is an opportunistic infection.

Fluconazole and glucose injection
Indication: This product is mainly used for patients with more severe conditions in the following indications: 1. Candidiasis: used to treat oropharyngeal and esophageal Candida infections; disseminated Candidiasis, including Candida vulvovaginitis such as peritonitis, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections. It can also be used to prevent the occurrence of Candida infections in bone marrow transplant patients receiving cytotoxic drugs or radiotherapy. 2. Cryptococcal disease: used to treat new cryptococci other than meninges; when treating cryptococcal meningitis, this product can be used as a maintenance treatment after initial treatment with amphotericin B combined with flucytosine. 3. Coccidioidomycosis. 4. This product can also replace itraconazole for the treatment of blastomycosis and histoplasmosis.
Ketoconazole tablets
Indication: 1 Systemic fungal infections, such as systemic candidiasis, paracoccidioidomycosis, and histoplasmosis. 2 Infections of the skin, hair, and toes caused by dermatophytes and/or yeasts (dermatophytes, onychomycosis, perionychia, tinea versicolor, chronic skin and mucosal candidiasis, etc.), when local treatment is ineffective or it is difficult to apply the medicine due to factors such as the site, area, and depth of infection, this drug can be used for treatment.

FLUCONAZOLE- fluconazole_tablet
Indication: INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Fluconazole is indicated for the treatment of: 1. Candida Candida 3. CLINICAL STUDIES Specimens for fungal culture and other relevant laboratory studies (serology, histopathology) should be obtained prior to therapy to isolate and identify causative organisms. Therapy may be instituted before the results of the cultures and other laboratory studies are known; however, once these results become available, anti-infective therapy should be adjusted accordingly. Fluconazole is also indicated to decrease the incidence of candidiasis in patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation who receive cytotoxic chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.
Prophylaxis
Fluconazole is also indicated to decrease the incidence of candidiasis in patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation who receive cytotoxic chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.
Cryptococcal meningitis
In a multicenter study comparing fluconazole (200 mg/day) to amphotericin B (0.3 mg/kg/day) for treatment of cryptococcal meningitis in patients with AIDS, a multivariate analysis revealed three pretreatment factors that predicted death during the course of therapy: abnormal mental status, cerebrospinal fluid cryptococcal antigen titer greater than 1:1024, and cerebrospinal fluid white blood cell count of less than 20 cells/mm 3 et al
Vaginal candidiasis
Two adequate and well-controlled studies were conducted in the U.S. using the 150 mg tablet. In both, the results of the fluconazole regimen were comparable to the control regimen (clotrimazole or miconazole intravaginally for 7 days) both clinically and statistically at the one month post-treatment evaluation.

These rates were comparable to control products. The remaining one-fourth of enrolled patients had recurrent vaginitis (>=4 episodes/12 months) and achieved 57% clinical cure, 47% mycologic eradication, and 40% therapeutic cure. The numbers are too small to make meaningful clinical or statistical comparisons with vaginal products in the treatment of patients with recurrent vaginitis. Substantially more gastrointestinal events were reported in the fluconazole group compared to the vaginal product group. Most of the events were mild to moderate. Because fluconazole was given as a single dose, no discontinuations occurred.
