Abstract
Triazole antifungals (i.e., fluconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, and isavuconazole) are commonly used in clinical practice to prevent or treat invasive fungal infections. Most triazole antifungals require therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) due to highly variable pharmacokinetics, known drug interactions, and established relationships between exposure and response. On behalf of the Society of Infectious Diseases Pharmacists (SIDP), this insight describes the pharmacokinetic principles and pharmacodynamic targets of commonly used triazole antifungals and provides the rationale for utility of TDM within each agent.
