Nosocomial candidemia is still associated with an extremely high crude and attributable mortality--much higher than that expected from underlying disease alone.

44 Clinical use of Flucytosine Approximately 80 to 90 percent of 5-FC is absorbed b following oral administration i ti. Peak serum levels of 30 to 45 mcg/ml occur one to two hours after a single oral dose of 150 mg/kg we generally recommend that a total dose of 100 mg/kg per day be given orally in four equally divided doses at six hour intervals for adult and pediatric patients with normal renal function
45 Clinical use of Flucytosine ml/min: 1/2 normal dose (12.5 mg/kg Q6h or 25 mg/kg Q12h) <20 ml/min: 1/4 (25 mg/kg once daily) Hemodialysis: 1/2 normal dose as supplement at end of dialysis Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis in adults: 0.5 to 1.0 gm Q24h

HSCT = hematopoietic stem cell transplant; QD = once daily. Adapted from Micafungin US Prescribing Information; Anidulafungin US Prescribing Information.
47 Conclusions A strong evidence of high prevalence of inappropriate prescribing Less than optimal dosing of fluconazole and voriconazole when given for the treatment t tof fcandida and mold ldinfections was noted Health care Providers should be more diligent for monitoring for inappropriate antifungal dosing schedule Future studies are needed to quantify the adverse health outcomes resulting from inappropriate drug use in this critical ill populations
