Description of the pharmacological actions:

Antifungal effect of active principle - clotrimazole (imidazole derivative) is connected with the violation of the synthesis of ergosterol, a component of the cell membrane of fungi that alters the permeability of the membrane and causes a subsequent cell lysis. In low concentrations fungistatic effect, in large - fungicide, not only in proliferating cells. The fungicidal concentrations interacts with mitochondrial and peroxidase enzymes, thereby increasing the concentration of hydrogen peroxide to toxic levels, which also contributes to the destruction of the fungus cells.

It is effective against dermatophytes, yeast and molds, as well as multi-colored depriving the pathogen (Pityriasis versicolor) and the pathogen erythrasma.
