Abstract

Antifungal resistance in humans is a clinical reality of increasing incidence that raises problems for patient care. In this current event, we discuss the link that can be made between the presence of antifungals in the environment and the development of resistance in humans, as well as the ecotoxicology of antifungals. The presence of antifungals in the environment has a health, but also an ecological impact. A "One Health" approach will help to address this environmental health challenge.

Keywords: Antifongiques; Antifungals; Ecotoxicology; Environment; Environnement; One Health; Resistance; Résistance; Une seule santé; Écotoxicité.
