Description
| Biochem/physiol Actions | Antifungal azole. Mode of action: Inhibits cytochrome P450-dependent 14α-demethylase, which is critical to ergosterol biosynthesis. The accumulated 14α-methylated sterols change the membrane structure of sensitive fungi, resulting in an altered cell membrane permeability. Also inhibits peroxidases, which results in accumulation of peroxide within the cell.1 |
