pharmachologic effect

Mikoderil - antifungal agents for external use, belonging to the class of allylamines.

Their active ingredient is naftifine.

The mechanism of action is associated with inhibition of squalene-2,3-epoxidase, which leads to a decrease in the formation of ergosterol, which is part of the cell wall of the fungus.

Naftifine, affecting squale epoxidase, does not affect the cytochrome P-450 system.

Naftifine is active against dermatophytes such as Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, Microsporum, yeast and yeast-like fungi (Candida spp., Pityrosporum), molds (Aspergillus) and other fungi (such as Sporothrix schenckii).

In relation to dermatophytes and aspergillus, naftifine acts fungicidal.

In relation to yeast fungi, the drug exhibits fungicidal or fungistatic activity, depending on the strain of the microorganism.

Naftifine has antibacterial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms that cause secondary bacterial infections.

Naftifine has an anti-inflammatory effect that promotes the rapid disappearance of symptoms of inflammation, especially itching.

Pharmacokinetics

When applied externally, it penetrates well into various layers of the skin, creating stable antifungal concentrations in its various layers.

After application to the skin, less than 6% of naftifine is absorbed systemically.

The absorbed amount is partially metabolized and excreted by the kidneys and through the intestines.

T1 / 2 of the drug is 2-3 days.
