Activity of SCH 56592 compared with those of fluconazole and itraconazole against Candida spp

D Law, CB Moore and DW Denning

The in vitro activity of Schering 56592, a new azole drug, was compared with those of fluconazole and itraconazole against 103 isolates of Candida comprising 10 different species. Schering 56592 was more active than itraconazole and fluconazole, and it was active against many fluconazole-resistant isolates.
