Posaconazole is more active than fluconazole against Candida albicans in vitro and is approved for the treatment of oropharyngeal candidiasis but not for that of invasive candidiasis (IC). Here, we explored the efficacy of posaconazole against C. albicans in an in vitro pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model of IC and determined the probability of pharmacodynamic target attainment for the oral solution and intravenous (i.v.)/tablet formulations.
