ExcerptRelevanceReference
"For persons with symptomatic cryptococcal meningitis, optimal initial management with amphotericin and flucytosine improves survival compared to alternative therapies; however, amphotsericin is difficult to administer and flucytosine has not been available in middle or low income countries, where cryptococcal meningitis is most prevalent."2.55Recent advances in AIDS-related cryptococcal meningitis treatment with an emphasis on resource limited settings. ( Abassi, M; Boulware, DR; Lofgren, S; Rhein, J, 2017)

"Most had confirmed cryptococcal meningitis, and 54% (14/26) of the symptomatic CrAg+ persons were dead or lost at 6 months."1.48A Prospective Evaluation of a Multisite Cryptococcal Screening and Treatment Program in HIV Clinics in Uganda.
