What Is Balamuthia Infection Treatment?

Balamuthia mandrillaris is an opportunistic amoeba found in soil and water, causing rare but fatal GAE or skin lesions, often in immunocompromised or healthy individuals via inhalation or cutaneous exposure. Diagnosis involves brain imaging, biopsy, and PCR, with treatment typically including miltefosine (primary drug), pentamidine, sulfadiazine, fluconazole, and macrolides like azithromycin or clarithromycin for synergistic effects. Globally, early intervention is critical, with CDC guidance emphasizing prolonged multidrug therapy and supportive measures, though mortality remains high.
