Twenty-one clinical and environmental isolates of\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">Paracoccidioides<\/jats:named-content>\n            were tested using amphotericin B, itraconazole, ketoconazole, fluconazole, sulfamethoxazole, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, and terbinafine, according to the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards, document M27-A2, 2002), with modifications such as three medium formulations (RPMI 1640 medium, McVeigh and Morton [MVM] medium, and modified Mueller-Hinton [MMH] medium), two incubation temperatures (room temperature [25 to 28\u00b0C] and 37\u00b0C), and three incubation periods (7, 10, and 15 days). The antifungal activities were also classified as fungicidal or fungistatic. The best results were obtained after 15 days of incubation, which was chosen as the standard incubation time. The MICs for most individual isolates grown for the same length of time at the same temperature varied with the different media used (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; 0.05). Of the isolates, 81% showed transition from the yeast to the mycelial form in RPMI 1640 medium at 37\u00b0C, independent of the presence of antifungals. MMH medium appears to be a suitable medium for susceptibility testing of antifungal drugs with\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">P. brasiliensis<\/jats:named-content>\n            , except for sulfamethoxazole and the combination of sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, for which the MVM medium yielded better results. The incubation temperature influenced the MICs, with, in general, higher MICs at 25\u00b0C (mycelial form) than at 37\u00b0C (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; 0.05).
