Objective: To evaluate the effect of chemosensitizers on the in vitro activity of fluconazole
against Candida albicans strains. Materials and Methods: Using Clinical Laboratory
Standard Institute method, antifungal activity of fluconazole was determined alone and in
combination with 16 chemosensitizers that included verapamil, reserpine, quinine,
quinidine, gemfibrozil, lansoprazole, tamoxifen, diltiazem, desipramine, nicardipine,
cyclosporine, chlorpromazine, prochlorperazine, promethazine, thioridazine, and …
