Possible Interaction: Acetylcysteine and Amphotericin B

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

By contrast, ROS remained elevated when AMB was tested alone, demonstrating that NAC reduced AMB oxidative effects without influencing its antifungal activity.
NAC alone reduced the oxidative burst generated by AMB in yeast cells, but did not inhibit fungal growth.
The combination of NAC + AMB was far better than AMB alone in increasing survival and reducing morbidity in murine-induced cryptococcosis, leading to reduced fungal burden in lungs and brain and also lower concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the lungs.
The combination NAC + AMB decreased capsule size, zeta potential, superoxide dismutase activity and lipid peroxidation.

In conclusion, EDTA, NAC , RIF, and CLA improve the activity of AMB and ANF against biofilms developed on both surfaces, which could be an effective strategy against C. tropicalis biofilm-related infections.
