Abstract

The text analyzes the use of isavuconazole in the treatment of invasive fungal infections within the Brazilian private healthcare system. It begins by highlighting that these infections are associated with high mortality among immunocompromised patients and that the choice of antifungal therapy should consider efficacy, safety, drug interactions, pharmacokinetics, and the availability of both intravenous and oral formulations.
