CAS 22916-47-8: Miconazole
Description:Miconazole is an antifungal agent belonging to the imidazole class of compounds, primarily used to treat various fungal infections, including those caused by dermatophytes and yeasts. It exhibits broad-spectrum antifungal activity by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting their integrity and function. Miconazole is typically available in various formulations, including creams, powders, and oral gels, making it suitable for topical and systemic applications. The substance is characterized by its white to off-white crystalline powder form, with a relatively low solubility in water but better solubility in organic solvents. Miconazole is known for its minimal systemic absorption when applied topically, which reduces the risk of systemic side effects. Additionally, it may exhibit some antibacterial properties, making it useful in treating mixed infections. As with any medication, potential side effects can occur, including local irritation or allergic reactions, and it is important to use it under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
