Pharmacotherapeutic group

Antifungal agent

pharmachologic effect

Dexpanthenol is a derivative of pantothenic acid. Pantothenic acid - a water-soluble vitamin B (vitamin B5) - is an integral part of coenzyme A (Ko-A). Stimulates skin regeneration, normalizes cellular metabolism, increases the strength of collagen fibers. An increase in the need for pantothenic acid is observed when the skin or tissues are damaged, and its deficiency can be compensated for by external use of Dexpanthenol. Optimum molecular weight, hydrophilicity and low polarity make it possible to penetrate into all layers of the skin. It has a weak anti-inflammatory effect.

Indications for use

Antifungal drug for external use, with a wide range of antifungal activity. In low concentrations, terbinafine has a fungicidal effect against dermatophytes (Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Trichophyton verrucosum, Trichophyton violaceum, Trichophyton tonsurans, Microsporum canis, Epidermophyton floccusom). Moderately sensitive: mold (mainly Candida albicans) and dimorphic fungi (Pityrosporum orbiculare (also known as Malassezia furfur)). Activity against yeast fungi, depending on their species, can be fungicidal or fungistatic. Terbinafine specifically alters the early stage of sterol biosynthesis in fungi by inhibiting the enzyme squalene epoxidase located on the cell membrane of the fungus. This leads to a deficiency of ergosterol and to the intracellular accumulation of squalene, which causes the death of the fungal cell. Terbinafine does not affect the metabolism of hormones or other drugs.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to terbinafine, to other components of the drug; children's age (up to 12 years), lactation.
