How Miconazole works

Miconazole comes into the imidazole antifungal category. It inhibits the cytochrome P-450 14α-lanosterol demethylase enzyme, which is required for the biotransformation of lanosterol into ergosterol. As a consequence, the production of ergosterol is inhibited, and the membranes of fungal cells are weakened and damaged, resulting in the leak out of the cell's primary components. As a result, fungi are eradicated, and the infection is cured.

Expert Advice

Doctors recommend that you take Miconazole to treat the infection and get relief from symptoms. This medication may cause allergic reactions such as a rash; therefore, if any of these side effects develop, please consult your doctor immediately. Do not miss any doses of this medication, and make sure to complete the whole prescribed therapy course even if you start to feel better. Here are a few suggestions to prevent infection: Make sure the area between your toes is dry and clean. Keep your fingernails short and use open-toed shoes mostly daily.

After intense exercise or continuous sweating, you should clean with antifungal soap in the shower. Never allow others to use your shoes, socks, or towel.

If you get it by accident, wash it off with plenty of water immediately. Skin infections may need treatment for 2 to 6 weeks, but nail infections may require treatment for six weeks to 6 months.
