Antifungal therapy
Antifungal therapy involves using medications to treat infections caused by fungi, such as yeast or molds. These drugs work by stopping the fungi from growing or killing them outright, helping the body clear the infection. Different antifungal medications target various fungi and are chosen based on the type and location of the infection. Treatment duration varies depending on the severity and site of the infection. Proper use of antifungal therapy is important, as incorrect use can lead to drug resistance or ongoing illness. Overall, these treatments are essential for effectively managing fungal infections and helping patients recover.
