Indications of Dermasim 1% Topical Solution

Dermasim 1% Solution includes Clotrimazole, a medication from the class of drugs known as azole antifungal agents. It is used to treat fungal nappy rash in infants, ringworm, athlete's foot, sweat rash, and other cutaneous fungal diseases. Clotrimazole works topically by preventing the manufacture of fungal ergosterol, which causes the fungal cell membrane to rupture and inhibits fungal growth.

Pharmacology

Clotrimazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal. It also exhibits activity against Trichomonas, Staphylococci, Streptococci, and Bacteroides. Clotrimazole kills fungi and yeasts by interfering with their cell membranes. It works by stopping the production of ergosterol, which is an essential component of fungal cell membranes resulting in increased membrane permeability and leakage of essential constituents of the fungal cells.
