This medication is especially effective against invasive aspergillosis, esophageal candidiasis, and infections caused by Candida and other fungal pathogens. Voriconazole works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting fungal growth and survival.
