Abstract
Systemic use of voriconazole (VCZ) might be restricted by adverse events, such as hepatotoxicity and neurotoxicity, or drug-drug interactions. Topical VCZ application to skin may help to treat local infection more effectively and limit unwanted whole-body exposure. Topical VCZ cream was stable for 90 days when refrigerated. A patient with cutaneous Fusarium solani infection on his right forearm was successfully treated with topical 1% VCZ cream after failure of oral VCZ treatment.Entities:
