Isavuconazole is an azole antifungal that can be used for various fungal infections. In this episode, I discuss isavuconazole pharmacology, adverse effect, drug interactions, and pharmacokinetics.

Oral bioavailability of isavuconazole is nearly 100% so dose conversions between IV and oral are typically not difficult to navigate.
