Sertaconazole Nitrate
Indications
Sertaconazole cream is used to treat interdigital tinea pedis and other topical fungal infections caused by Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and Epidermophyton floccosum in immunocompetent patients aged 12 and up.
Pharmacology
Sertaconazole, an imidazole antifungal, inhibits the 14 alpha-lanosterol demethylase enzyme, which is mediated by cytochrome P450 in fungi. Ergosterol is a crucial component of fungal cell membranes, and its absence causes fungal cell damage by allowing important cytoplasmic contents to seep out of the cell.
Dosage & Administration
In the treatment of interdigital tinea pedis, Sertaconazole cream should be applied twice daily for 4 weeks. A sufficient amount of Sertaconazole cream should be applied to cover both the affected areas between the toes and the immediately surrounding healthy skin of patients with interdigital tinea pedis. Not for ophthalmic, oral, or intravaginal use.

Geriatric Use: Clinical trials of Fungitac cream 2% did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects.
