Econazole Sulfosalicylate is an antifungal agent applied topically or intravaginally. Econazole, an imidazole derivative, is indicated in the treatment of skin infections such as dermatophytosis, superficial candidasis, and tinea versicolor, and of infections of the nails. Econazole is also used as a topical antimycotic in veterinary medicine.

Background | Econazole is an imidazole with antifungal property. Econazole compromises the integrity of fungal cell wall through inhibiting 14-alpha demethylase, which catalyzes conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell wall. As a result, this agent increases cellular permeability thereby resulting in leakage of cellular contents. Furthermore, econazole has also been implicated to inhibit endogenous respiration, interact with membrane phospholipids, inhibit purine uptake, and impair triglyceride and/or phospholipid biosynthesis. >> Read More |
