Description

Miconazole Nitrate is an imidazole antifungal agent.Target: AntifungalMiconazole is an imidazole antifungal agent, developed by Janssen Pharmaceutica, commonly applied topically to the skin or to mucous membranes to cure fungal infections. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. It can also be used against certain species of Leishmania protozoa which are a type of unicellular parasite that also contain ergosterol in their cell me


An imidazole antifungal agent that is used topically and by intravenous infusion.

Miconazole nitrate Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Miconazole is a widely used antifungal imidazole that acts by inhibiting the 14α-demethylation of lanosterol, which consequently leads to the inhibition of ergosterol synthesis in fungal cell membranes. Additionally, miconazole has been shown to induce reactive oxygen species in fungal biofilms, demonstrating a MIC value of ≥256 μM against Candida spp.

Drug Function and Efficacy

Imidazole antifungal drugs have antibacterial and bactericidal effects. They can inhibit the biosynthesis of fungal ergosterol and other sterols, damage fungal cell membranes and change their permeability, inhibit the biosynthesis of fungal triglycerides and phospholipids, inhibit oxidation and peroxidase activity, cause excessive accumulation of peroxides in cells, and lead to degeneration or necrosis of fungal subcellular structures; for Candida albicans, they can inhibit the transformation of its spores into invasive hyphae.

This ingredient has been used in drugs with the following functions (note: it does not mean that the ingredient itself has the following health functions)
