Function
What is Amphotericin B
Amphotericin B is a polyene macrolide antibiotic which was introduced into clinical medicine in 1955. It is primarily used for the treatment of serious systemic fungal infections. It is also used as an alternative drug for the treatment of drug resistant Leishmania. Amphotericin B is an effective drug, but its use is limited because of its toxicity. The advent of liposome encapsulated amphotericin may increase its use in multiresistant Leishmania in the future.
Function of Amphotericin B
1. Antifungal
One of the main intravenous uses for Amphotericin B is in treating various systemic fungal infections (e.g.,
in critically ill, comorbidly infected or immunocompromised patients), including cryptococcal meningitis.Amphotericin B is also commonly used in tissue culture to prevent fungi from contaminating cell cultures.
Amphotericin B is usually sold in a concentrated solution, either on its own or in combination with the
antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin.2. Antiprotozoan
Another IV use for Amphotericin B is as a drug of last resort in otherwise-untreatable parasitic protozoan
infections such as visceral leishmaniasis and primary amoebic meningoencephalitis.
