Antifungals are not effective against bacterial pathogens, viruses, or parasites. These pathogens have different biological structures and life cycles that antifungal medications do not target. For instance, bacterial infections require antibiotics, while viral infections are treated with antiviral drugs. Additionally, antiparasitic medications are needed to combat parasites.
