Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Systemic mycoses are infections caused by fungi that have invaded deep tissues and are therefore difficult to treat. Aspergillus is a common cause of systemic mycosis and can be fatal if left untreated. Amphotericin B is the drug of choice for invasive Aspergillosis due to its broad-spectrum activity against many types of fungi, including Aspergillus. It is administered intravenously and is associated with significant side effects, including fever, chills, and renal toxicity.
