Clinical studies support a role for anidulafungin as first-line treatment of invasive candidiasis in critically ill patients and postulate no need for dose adjustments in mild to severe renal failure. Although intensive care patients requiring renal replacement therapy are at particular risk of invasive fungal infection, no pharmacokinetic data on anidulafungin during continuous venovenous haemoltration (CVVHF) are available.
