Mucormycosis presents a diagnostic challenge characterized by high morbidity and mortality rates due to its swift and pervasive nature, which leads to extensive tissue destruction and dissemination. Immunocompromised individuals, notably those with hematological malignancies, are at a heightened risk. First-line antifungal agents include liposomal amphotericin B (L-AMB), posaconazole, and isavuconazole (IVZ), which offer advantages, such as minimal drug interactions and a favorable safety profile. However, the necessity and efficacy of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of IVZ remain unclear.
