Caspofungin Acetate(Cat No.:I013966)is an antifungal agent used primarily in the treatment of invasive fungal infections, including candidiasis and aspergillosis. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of glucan, a key component of fungal cell walls, thereby impairing cell integrity and leading to cell death. As a member of the echinocandin class of drugs, Caspofungin Acetate is administered intravenously and is effective against resistant fungal strains. It is commonly used in immunocompromised patients, including those with hematologic malignancies or organ transplants, where fungal infections pose significant risks.
