There are Relatively Few Antifungal Medications Available Compared to Antibacterial

Question

There are relatively few antifungal medications available compared to antibacterial drugs.

Accepted Answer

This statement is true. There are significantly fewer antifungal medications available compared to antibacterial drugs. This is partly due to the fact that fungi are more similar to human cells than bacteria, meaning that it is harder to target them with medication without damaging the body's own cells. Additionally, fungal infections are generally less common than bacterial infections, so there is less demand for antifungal drugs.
