Antifungal medicines are a vital component in the treatment of fungal infections, which can range from superficial skin conditions to life-threatening systemic diseases. Fungi, including yeasts, molds, and dimorphic fungi, can invade various parts of the body and cause diverse types of infections. Antifungal agents work by targeting specific aspects of fungal biology, such as cell membrane integrity or cell wall synthesis, thereby eradicating the infection and alleviating symptoms.
