Posaconazole for chronic refractory coccidioidal meningitis.

Rebecca Schein1, James Homans, Robert A Larsen, Michael Neely.   

Abstract

Coccidioidal meningitis is a potentially lethal infection. Disease progression while taking fluconazole is a common complication and safe, effective, alternative treatments are limited. Posaconazole therapy resulted in symptomatic and laboratory improvement in 2 patients and clinical improvement in a third patient with chronic, previously unresponsive coccidioidal meningitis.
