I am allergic to it and have to be premedicated with 650mg Tylenol and 50 of benedryl. It does work in getting rid of the fungus and does not cause me to feel too badly.(I have taken amphotericin for many years, but since my 5 organ digestive transplant in 2005,can no longer take it.)My doctors suggested caspofungin. I have taken it several times.
