A member asked:
Can the anti-fungal antibiotics get in the brain to treat the mucormycosis in the brain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mycormycosis: Well, antifungal treatment alone is often not sufficient with Rhinocerebral mucormycosis. Some studies show up to 85 % death rate. Surgical intervention is usually required as well.
