Pharmacological action
Candide – a wide spectrum antifungal.
The antimycotic effect of the active substance, clotrimazole (an imidazole derivative), is associated with impaired synthesis of ergosterol, which is part of the cell membrane of fungi, which changes the membrane permeability and causes subsequent cell lysis.
It acts fungistatically in small concentrations, fungicidal in large concentrations, and not only on proliferating cells.
In fungicidal concentrations, it interacts with mitochondrial and peroxidase enzymes, As a result, there is an increase in the concentration of hydrogen peroxide to a toxic level, which also contributes to the destruction of fungal cells.
Effective against dermatophytes, yeast-like and mold fungi, as well as the causative agent of colorful lichen (Pityriasis versicolor) and the pathogen of erythrasma.
It has antimicrobial activity against gram-positive (staphylococci, streptococci) and gram-negative bacteria (Bacteroides, Gardnerella vaginalis), as well as against Trichomonas vaginalis.
