Candidiasis is a major cause of morbidity among immunocompromised patients. Infections caused by non-albicans candida like C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis, and C. tropicalis have also imposed a serious threat in the last few decades. Current treatment of candidiasis relies primarily on antifungal agents broadly categorized as azoles, polyenes, echinocandins, allylamines, and pyrimidines. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLately, antifungal resistance has emerged to be an obstruction of current treatment regime. A number of reasons are described in detail.
