There are 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.

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 component and disrupt the cell wall of fungi and cease its growth. Topically, Amphotericin B is used in mucocutaneous candidiasis
