Antifungal therapy has as major disadvantage that there is little free molecules of cytotoxic action towards mammalian cells and which share many characteristics that are also functional eukaryotic cells. Moreover, due to the chemical nature of many of these molecules that are poorly soluble in water this can affect their bioavailability. This limits its therapeutic action and require the design of effective dosage forms. For this reason, the development of new technologies and synthesis of nanomaterials is emerging as a possible alternative for the treatment of fungal infections. Nanotechnological developments aimed at obtaining efficient and safe antifungal dosage forms such as liposomes, silver nanoparticles, solid lipid nanoparticles, polymeric and lipid microtubules nanoparticles are presented in this review paper.

Palabras llave : antifungal; nanoparticles; antifungal activity.
