Lombazole is an antimicrobial agent of the imidazole class. It induced profound ultrastructural changes in Staphylococcus epidermidis and Candida albicans. Like other members of the imidazole series, such as clotrimazole, miconazole, and bifonazole, the compound has a broad spectrum of activity. It is active against several budding and filamentous fungi as well as gram-positive bacteria. Lombazole most probably interferes with fungal lipid synthesis by inhibiting sterol C-14 demethylation. Lipid biosynthesis is the primary site of action of lombazole in the bacterium Staphylococcus epidermidis. Lombazole was recommended against akne.
