Candide vaginal gel 2%, 30 g (Clotrimazole)

Latin name

CANDID

Pharmacological action

Candide is a broad-spectrum antifungal.

The antimycotic effect of the active substance, clotrimazole (an imidazole derivative), is associated with impaired synthesis of ergosterol, which is part of the cell membrane of fungi, which changes the membrane permeability and causes subsequent cell lysis. In small concentrations it acts fungistatically, in large - fungicidal, and not only on proliferating cells.

In fungicidal concentrations, it interacts with mitochondrial and peroxidase enzymes, resulting in an increase in the concentration of hydrogen peroxide to a toxic level, which also contributes to the destruction of fungal cells.

Effective against dermatophytes, yeast and mold fungi, as well as the causative agent of colorful lichen (Pityriasis versicolor) and the causative agent of erythrasma. It has an antimicrobial effect against gram-positive (staphylococci, streptococci) and gram-negative bacteria (Bacteroides, Gardnerella vaginalis), as well as against Trichomonas vaginalis.
