Abstract

The recent introduction of a new generation of antifungal drugs promises to alter significantly therapy for both systemic and superficial mycoses, in particular, onychomycosis. This article presents an in-depth review of the azoles (the triazoles itraconazole and fluconazole), the allylamines (naftifine and terbinafine), and the morpholine derivative amorolfine.
