Mode of Action of Luliconazole and Salicylic Acid Cream
Luliconazole belongs to a class of medications called Azole antifungals. It works by killing the fungi on the skin by disrupting their cell membrane and inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of the fungal cell membrane. As a result, the cell membrane becomes leaky and leading to the death of the fungal cells. Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic medication belonging to the drug class Beta hydroxy acid. It softens and loosens the outer layer of the skin, which helps remove scales, enabling Luliconazole to penetrate deep into skin layers and clear the infection more effectively. Salicylic acid also exhibits mild anti-inflammatory effects, which help to soothe irritated skin. Both function by controlling the fungal cells by reducing their protein and DNA synthesis.
