Amphotericin B (AmB) is a highly hydrophobic drug used to treat systemic fungal infections and remains the principal therapeutic choice for deep mycoses. However, its application is limited by toxicity and a route of administration requiring slow intravenous injection (1). An oral formulation of ...

Amphotericin B is highly toxic and most patients treated with the drug may experience side effects. Thus its clinical use in leishmaniasis is limited. The reported side effects are largely from patients with fungal infections. After intravenous administration, a series of adverse reactions occur. The...
Failure of combination therapy suggests lack of synergistic or additive effect and also the ineffectiveness of intraperitoneal route of administration for AmBisome.

This article describes the practice experience in the treatment of CM, preparation of IT AmBd, and the different dosing strategies used in regard to route of administration (ie, cisternal, lumbar, ventricular). [ FROM AUTHOR] DOI: 10.1093/cid/ciw794. 展开 ...
Oral drug delivery is the most desirable delivery route being non-invasive, convenient and cost-effective. Endogenously, the SLNs are conducive for enhancing the oral uptake of the therapeutic agent by retaining a solubilized state of the drug in the GIT and favors the formation of mixed micelles...

High heterogeneity in the design, groups, and route of administration of AmB among studies was observed, requiring caution in interpreting and extrapolating of this pooled rate. In summary, the results show that local routes of administration of AmB are a promising stra...
The larger volume of the co-administered lipid-based formulation in the case of the higher dose of orally administered AmB resulted in flip-flop kinetics and in preferential distribution into the kidneys. No nephrotoxicity was detected for any formulation and route of administration. Conclusions Oral...
Less than 10% of a parenteral dose of the conventional micellar suspension of amphotericin B remains in the blood 12 h after administration. The remainder is thought to bind to tissue cell membranes, the highest concentrations being found in the liver (up to 40% of the dose). Levels in the...
