Abstract

Azoles have maintained a key role in the treatment of invasive fungal infections which have a growing importance, especially in immunocompromised patients. Voriconazole is a second generation new triazole antifungal agent with potent activity against many clinically significant fungal pathogens, including Aspergillus, Candida, Cryptococcus neoformans and some less common moulds. Several recent studies have indicated that voriconazole is also highly effective in therapy of clinical cases. In our review it is aimed to give further information about voriconazoles’ clinical effects and use in veterinary practice.

Özet

Azoller artan öneme sahip invaziv fungal infeksiyonların tedavisinde özellikle immunolojik açıdan sorunlu olan hastalarda anahtar rol üstlenirler. Vorikonazol Aspergillus, Candida, Cryptococcus neoformans ve daha az görülen bazı küfler gibi klinik olarak önemli olan fungal patojenlere karşı geniş spektrumlu güçlü aktivitesiyle ikinci jenerasyon yeni triazol antifungal ajandır. Son zamanlarda yapılan pek çok çalışma vorikonazolün klinik etkinliğinin oldukça büyük olduğunu göstermiştir. Derlememizde vorikonazolün veteriner pratiğinde kullanımı hakkında bilgi verilmektedir.
