Liver Diseases
ModerateLaboratory abnormalities in liver function tests have been observed in healthy volunteers and patients treated with echinocandins, and clinical hepatic abnormalities have occurred in some patients with serious underlying conditions who were receiving multiple concomitant medications with echinocandin therapy.
