There a many reasons why antibacterial drugs are far more abundant than anti fungal drugs. I will summarized them into four

1. The species of bacterial worldwide is numerically higher than the species of fungal.

2. majority of human infections are caused by bacteria, thus little caused by fungi

3. most anti fungal drugs are effective for the treatment of all fungi infections (in humans), on the other hand it is not so with bacteria

4. Bacteria resistance to antibacterial drugs are more rampant than fungi resistance to anti fungal drugs, thus making antibacterial drugs more in existence.

From this few four points u will be able to know why there are more antibacterial agents than anti fungal agent

Probably, the troops took meth to keep themselves awake but it would make sense for it to be mandatory. Hitler himself was taking 70+ different drugs at the end of the war. You can see my replies to the other answer saying that he was anti-drugs for more detail.


Can nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide cream help athlete feet?

I was prescribed triamcinolone acetonide to use WITH an over the counter anti fungal cream (like clotrimazole) to cure my athlete's foot. I was getting severe, scarring fungal infections that the anti fungal creams would not cure. The Triamcinolone stops the itching and burning, as well as the swelling which allowed the anti fungal cream to work much more effectively and quicker.


Why does your feet have a burning sensation in summer only in spite of not being a diabetic or have hyper acidity?

It is possible you have a fungal infection, or "Athlete's Foot." Your feet tend to be warmer and sweat more in the summer time which can cause a fungal infection due to the inability to completely dry out. Try an over the counter anti-fungal cream and see if that helps.
