Sertaconazole is a azole antifungal that is FDA approved for the treatment of interdigital tinea pedis in immunocompetent patients 12 years of age and older, caused by: Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and Epidermophyton floccosum. Sertaconazole interacts with 14-α demethylase, a cytochrome P-450 enzyme necessary to convert lanosterol to ergosterol. As ergosterol is an essential component of the fungal cell membrane, inhibition of its synthesis results in increased cellular permeability causing leakage of cellular contents. Common adverse reactions include contact dermatitis, dry skin, burning skin and application site skin tenderness.
Status:
First approved in 1982

Conditions:

Econazole (commonly used as the nitrate salt) is an antifungal medication of the imidazole class. It is a broad spectrum antimycotic with some action against Gram positive bacteria. It is used topically in dermatomycoses also orally and parenterally. Sold under the brand name Ecoza among others, it is indicated for the treatment of interdigital tinea pedis caused by Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and Epidermophyton floccosum in patients 12 years of age and older. Econazole interacts with 14-α demethylase, a cytochrome P-450 enzyme necessary to convert lanosterol to ergosterol. As ergosterol is an essential component of the fungal cell membrane, inhibition of its synthesis results in increased cellular permeability causing leakage of cellular contents. Econazole may also inhibit endogenous respiration, interact with membrane phospholipids, inhibit the transformation of yeasts to mycelial forms, inhibit purine uptake, and impair triglyceride and/or phospholipid biosynthesis.

Miconazole is a synthetic imidazole derivative, a topical antifungal agent for use in the local treatment of vaginal, and skin and nail infections due to yeasts and dermatophytes. It is particularly active against Candida spp., Trichophyton spp., Epidermophyton spp., Microsporum spp. and Pityrosporon orbiculare (Malassezia furfur), but also possesses some activity against Gram-positive bacteria. It binds to the heme moiety of the fungal cytochrome P-450 dependent enzyme lanosterol 14-alpha-demethlyase. Inhibits 14-alpha-demethlyase, blocks formation of ergosterol and leads to the buildup of toxic methylated 14-a-sterols. Miconazole also affects the synthesis of triglycerides and fatty acids and inhibits oxidative and peroxidative enzymes, increasing the amount of active oxygen species within the cell.

Fenticonazole is an imidazole derivative with a broad spectrum of antimycotic activity. It is used as a nitrate salt under different trade names (Lomexin, Gynoxin, Fentizol, etc) for the treatment of vaginal candidiasis. Fenticonazole inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, an important step in the formation of the wall of fungi and blocks the oxidizing enzymes with the corresponding accumulation of peroxides and necrosis of the fungal cell. In vitro studies have shown a broad fungistatic and fungicidal activity. Like other azole agents, the spectrum of action of Fenticonazole also extends to some gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. In vivo studies have also shown activity against Trichomonas Vaginalis.
