Antifungal drugs
Fungi organisms are vital elements of almost all ecosystems and the invisible shapers of the world around us. There is a wide array of fungi but only 10 percent of fungal organisms have been formally classified. They break down organic matter and nourish both plants and animals. In cooking, yeast is useful for making bread, and many types of mushrooms add flavor and nutrition to a meal. Fungal pathogens are weakly identified though they exert a lot of impact on health and economic well-being.
Fungi are not casual pathogens; their infections can be very dreadful. The immune system of our body fights all kinds of infections, but some pathogenic fungi have the ability to penetrate the tissues and cause infections by releasing toxins and enzymes.
Causes of fungal disease:
Weakened immunity is the prime cause of these infections. Other factors are:
• Prolonged intake of antibiotic medication makes the people susceptible to these infections
• Other micro-organisms like viruses are able to attack some of the immune cells and prevent them from playing their role in tissue defense
• The kids who are not breastfed are more prone to the fungal infections.
• Other disease condition such as diabetes, cancer or HIV/AIDS also stimulates fungal growth in human body
• Direct contact with person or animal having fungal infection
• Indirect contact with items containing fungus such as towels and bedclothes
• Cut or graze the surface of skin
• Walk barefoot in shower and pool area
• If you wear tight clothing which doesn’t allow the sweat to evaporate
Signs and Symptoms:
Common signs and symptoms of fungal infections are:
• Oral thrush
• Dry elbows, feet, and knees
• Athlete’s foot
• Gas, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea
• Ear infections
• Tonsillitis, hives, and Candida
• Rosaceae, vaginitis, vaginal discharge
• Fatigue, tiredness, fibromyalgic pain
• Memory loss, forgetfulness, and confusion
• All kinds of allergies including histamine release that incrementally increases over time
Adverse effects of the problem:
If proper medications are given at the proper time then fungal diseases are treatable. In such conditions, fungal diseases do not affect the life of a person.
Preventive measures:
There are some steps that can reduce the risk of getting a fungal skin infection and stop it from spreading. Eliminating fungi-containing foods such as bread, wine, vinegar, and apple cidar really helps you to recover fast. Dry your infected skin properly after bathing and sweating.

Avoid using scented or antibacterial soaps and prefer to use good quality coconut oil-based soap or wash thoroughly with plain water. Keep your blood pressure and sugar levels in control.
Common Anti fungal medicines:

• Candid cream
• Candid-B cream
• Butop
• Candid lotion

Myths and facts:
Myth 1: Ringworm is a worm infection
Fact: Ringworm is a fungal disease and is not caused by a worm. It is caused by a kind of fungus called dermatophytes
Myth 4: Ringworm is found only inchildren
Ringworm is commonly found in children s they can easily come in contact with fungal-prone areas, but adults are not safe from this infection.
Diagnosis of fungal disease:
Once the fungi are identified in the patient's blood, the physician will take a small sample of tissue from the affected area. If the infection is in the respiratory tract, then the doctor collects a swab from the back of the patient's throat. The sample is then analyzed under a microscope for the presence of fungi. If fungus is present, a positive diagnosis is made.
Other test are also done such as:
1. Agar culture
2. Microscopy
3. Blood test antigen
4. X-ray scan
5. DNA detection
Treatment for fungal diseases disease:
Treatments for fungal skin infections are usually effective. Antifungal drugs are used to cure infections. They don’t produce many side effects. Rarely observed symptoms are skin irritation and stomach problems. Treatment should continue for up to two weeks after the rash disappears. A rash may return, even if it seems to have cleared up. Depending upon the type of infection, a topical or systemic agent may be used. Following are the antifungal drugs for the treatment:
• Antibiotics such as Amphotericin B, Griesofulvin & Nystatin. They bind to sterol components disrupt the cell wall of fungi and cease its growth. Topically, Amphotericin B is used in mucocutaneous candidiasis
• Antimetabolite like Flucytosine causes functional and structural changes in RNA of fungi and stops its activity. Given in Cryptococcus and Candida affecting urinary tract infections.
• Azoles like Fluconazole, Ketoconazole, Itraconazole, and Clotrimazole act by interfering in the synthesis of the cytoplasmic membrane of fungi and kill them. Topically Clotrimazole and Miconazole are given in Tinea, Otomycosis & Tinea pedis. Ketoconazole & Griesofulvin are given for the infection of nails and scalp.
• Allylamine Terbinafine is given in the treatment of nail fungus and ringworm infections.
The best treatment consists of the above-mentioned drugs and along with this good anti-fungal diet weakens the fungal group being treated. Weekly colonic irrigation should be done to remove the bulk of fungus and balance the colon. For chronic fungal infections, intravenous antifungal agents are given for a speedy recovery.

Zinc-rich diet keeps you away from scalp-related fungal problems. More intakes of Probiotics (beneficial bacteria) boost your immunity and prevent fungal mouth infections. Garlic, a powerful antibacterial enhances immunity and is most effective when eaten raw. Pomegranate helps to cure candidiasis associated with the mouth. Tea tree oil has been found to have activity against several fungus species and cures onychomycosis, tinea pedis (athlete's foot), or thrush (oral Candida albicans).
