🔬 How This Medicine Works (Pharmacology)
Pharmacokinetics
How It Works
Miconazole works by inhibiting the fungal enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase, which is required to convert lanosterol to ergosterol. Ergosterol is a vital component of the fungal cell membrane. Without enough ergosterol, the fungal cell membrane becomes weak and leaky, causing essential cell contents to escape and leading to fungal cell death. This medicine also may inhibit the synthesis of triglycerides and phospholipids and block the transformation of yeast cells into invasive hyphal forms.
