fluconazole and Nephrotic Syndrome

fluconazole has been researched along with Nephrotic Syndrome in 5 studies

Fluconazole: Triazole antifungal agent that is used to treat oropharyngeal CANDIDIASIS and cryptococcal MENINGITIS in AIDS.
fluconazole : A member of the class of triazoles that is propan-2-ol substituted at position 1 and 3 by 1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl groups and at position 2 by a 2,4-difluorophenyl group. It is an antifungal drug used for the treatment of mucosal candidiasis and for systemic infections including systemic candidiasis, coccidioidomycosis, and cryptococcosis.

Nephrotic Syndrome: A condition characterized by severe PROTEINURIA, greater than 3.5 g/day in an average adult. The substantial loss of protein in the urine results in complications such as HYPOPROTEINEMIA; generalized EDEMA; HYPERTENSION; and HYPERLIPIDEMIAS. Diseases associated with nephrotic syndrome generally cause chronic kidney dysfunction.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Cryptococcosis is considered as an opportunistic infection because it mainly occurs in immunosuppressed hosts."1.39Disseminated cryptococcosis initially presenting as cellulitis in a patient suffering from nephrotic syndrome. ( Cui, J; Huang, Q; Ni, W, 2013)
" Accordingly, we made the diagnosis of cryptococcal meningitis and immediately started multiple anti fungal drugs with dosage modification according to her impaired renal function."1.34[A case of cryptococcal meningitis with nephrotic syndrome and renal insufficiency under immunosuppressive therapy]. ( Ichikawa, D; Kimura, K; Sato, T; Shima, Y; Tsuchida, H; Yasuda, T, 2007)
"Treatment with amphotericin B followed by fluconazole was successful and in the course of two months when, the skin nodules disappeared."1.33Disseminated cryptococcosis in a patient with nephrotic syndrome. ( Ahmed, E; Manzoor, K; Qadir, F, 2006)
