Flucanazole??
Edit. for people saying Amphotericin B it isn't used for most fungal infections not in the hospital setting at least. Flucanazole or Diflucan is the most common and the most cost effective. No matter what you read on a website.

The latest one is Voriconazole, but more often than not treatment is started with the more commonly used (and cheaper) older drugs such as fluconazole or amphotericin B
