| Application | Econazole nitrate is the nitrate salt form of Econazole. Econazole nitrate is mainly used for the treatment of skin infections including athlete’s foot, tinea, pityriasis versicolor, ringworm, and jock itch caused by fungi such as Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton tonsurans and Microsporum audouini. As an imidazole-class drug, Econazole nitrate takes effects through inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membrane, thus disrupting the normal permeability of fungal membrane. This causes leakage of essential cellular contents of fungi, further killing them. |
