Использование

Antifungal.
Oxiconazole (Oxistat) is a synthetic imidazole that works, in part, by inhibiting ergosterol 2,3-epoxidase synthesis and thereby disrupting cell membrane integrity.

Определение

An antifungal agent, it is used (generally as the nitrate salt) in creams and powders for the topical treatment of fungal skin infections.

Показания
