In vitro synergistic interaction between amphotericin B and micafungin against Scedosporium spp.

The in vitro interaction between amphotericin B and micafungin against 36 isolates of Scedosporium spp. has been evaluated using checkerboard assays and the minimal effective concentration endpoint. Synergy was found for 82.4% of Scedosporium prolificans isolates and for 31.6% of Scedosporium apiospermum isolates. Antagonism was not observed.
