CAS 137234-62-9: Voriconazole
Description:Voriconazole is an antifungal medication primarily used to treat serious fungal infections, particularly those caused by Aspergillus species and Candida. It belongs to the triazole class of antifungals, which function by inhibiting the enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase, crucial for ergosterol synthesis in fungal cell membranes. Voriconazole is characterized by its broad-spectrum activity against various fungi, making it effective in both invasive and non-invasive infections. The compound is typically administered orally or intravenously and is known for its good bioavailability and tissue penetration. Its pharmacokinetics can be influenced by factors such as age, liver function, and concurrent medications, necessitating careful monitoring of drug levels in some patients. Voriconazole is also associated with potential side effects, including visual disturbances, hepatotoxicity, and skin reactions. Due to its specific mechanism of action and side effect profile, voriconazole is often reserved for cases where other antifungal treatments are ineffective or inappropriate.
