Yes, I was on Vfend ( short name) for aspergillosis fumagatos. I was on it for a long time. The only side effect I remember was everything looked yellowish for a few hours so I didn’t drive anywhere till that was gone. Some people get skin stuff, but I did not. It cured that fungus. Cresemba is the gold standard if you can’t tolerate Vfend. It is pricey though. Irene5
Thank you for your quick reply. Unfortunately I have the strain that affects my skin and have been trying to find a cause. All cultures were negative. I’ve been on Vfend a couple of months but obviously I’ll need a stronger course now that it’s been identified. I appreciate your help.
