How It Works

Clobetasol: Anti-inflammatory via glucocorticoid receptor; Miconazole: Inhibits ergosterol synthesis disrupting fungal cell membrane.

Mechanism Steps

1Clobetasol binds to glucocorticoid receptor, modulating gene expression to reduce inflammation.
2Miconazole inhibits lanosterol 14α-demethylase, blocking ergosterol synthesis.
3Ergosterol depletion disrupts fungal cell membrane integrity, leading to cell death.
