Allergic symptoms including anaphylaxis may occur.It was originally extracted from Streptomyces nodosus, a filamentous bacterium, in 1955, at the Squibb Institute for Medical Research. Its name originates from the chemical's amphoteric properties. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, a list of the most important medications needed in a basic health system. It is of the polyene class. Currently, the drug is available as plain amphotericin B, as a cholesteryl sulfate complex (ABCD), as a lipid complex (ABLC), and as a liposomal formulation (LAmB). The latter formulations have been developed to improve tolerability, but may show considerably different pharmacokinetic characteristics compared to plain amphotericin B."@en }
