Itraconazole treatment of experimental systemic candidiasis in male rats
Abstract
After intravenous infection with Candida albicans, rats received daily doses of itraconazole for 3 days. All rats receiving 2.5 mg kg-1 day-1 survived while all rats receiving sham-treatment died. With subsequent reduction of the itraconazole dose to 0.63 mg kg-1 day-1, no survival occurred and mortality rates equalled those of the control group.
