Abstract

In India, COVID-19 has led to a surge in cases of a potentially fatal fungal infection called mucormycosis, popularly known as "black fungus." Intravenous amphotericin B is the only available drug for salvage therapy. Efforts to improve its therapeutic efficacy and decrease its nephrotoxicity have focussed on the reformulation of AmB in three new lipid formulations such amphotericin B lipid complex (Abelcet), amphotericin B colloidal dispersion (Amphotec), and liposomal amphotericin B (AmBisome). The aim of this study is (1) to evaluate the adverse drug reaction of various formulations of amphotericin B used for the treatment of rhinooculocerebralmucormycosis in Indian population. (2) to evaluate the adverse drug reaction of injectable form of posaconazole. This prospective observational study was done on a random sample of 110 patients who got admitted for the management of rhinooculocerebral mucormycosis in a tertiary care centre of middle india… The pati ents were assessed for the adverse reactions following the administration of various antifungal medication and the findings were analysed. All the 110 patients had received two forms of Amphotericin B (liposomal Amphotericin B and Amphotericin B lipid complex) and Posaconazole injection. 60 patients had received all three forms of Amphotericin B. Out of the 110 patients who received Liposomal amphotericin B, only 2 patients developed adverse drug reaction while in 110 patients who received Amphotericin B Lipid complex, 7 patients had adverse drug effects. Lyophilised amphotericin B had been administered to 60 patients in which 51 patients developed adverse drug reaction and in them one patient went to congestive cardiac failure. Injection posaconazole had been administered to 110 patients in which 72 patients developed drug reaction. In spite of its proven track record of Amphotericin B, its well-known side effects and toxicity will sometimes require discontinuation of therapy despi te a life-threatening systemic fungal infection. Lipid formulations of AmB are better tolerated than AmB deoxycholate but infusional drug reactions have been reported in lipid formulation too. So improved strategies for the management of infusion related adverse events are required.

  1. The worst time has passed”However, it is true that there are more improvements than before...because of the rising numbers of people living with HIV in the state of Nevada. How could they stigmatize all of them? Therefore everything becomes a little easier and we start to share everything... We also started to invite and visit each other in a community. You know, it is six years since I started taking antiretroviral drugs...Yet whatever problems I face, the worst time has passedWhen I was evicted from the family home by my mother, my father rented a small room for me. But my mother and brothers believed that having HIV was my own fault – and that I deserved to be punished...I also considered myself unworthy and without hope... But I have a child and eventually I convinced myself to live for my child’s sake.
    My mother knew nothing [about HIV]. She didn’t understand anything. Do you know why? She didn’t have [the chance] to go out of the house and communicate with society. However, my father does interact with the community. I know his friends are mature and dignified africa america.
