CAS 208538-73-2: Micafungin Sodium
Description:Micafungin sodium is an antifungal agent belonging to the echinocandin class, primarily used in the treatment of invasive fungal infections, particularly those caused by Candida and Aspergillus species. It functions by inhibiting the synthesis of β-(1,3)-D-glucan, an essential component of the fungal cell wall, thereby compromising the structural integrity of the fungus and leading to cell lysis. Micafungin is typically administered intravenously and is characterized by its broad-spectrum activity against various fungal pathogens, making it a valuable option in clinical settings, especially for immunocompromised patients. The substance is soluble in water and exhibits stability under physiological conditions. Its pharmacokinetics involve a relatively long half-life, allowing for once-daily dosing. Common side effects may include infusion-related reactions, liver enzyme elevations, and gastrointestinal disturbances. Due to its mechanism of action and safety profile, micafungin is often preferred in cases where other antifungal therapies may be less effective or contraindicated.
