Distaxal Pharmacology
Tioconazole is a broad-spectrum imidazole antifungal agent that inhibits the growth of human pathogenic yeasts. Tioconazole exhibits fungicidal activity in vitro against Candida albicans, other species of the genus Candida, and against Torulopsis glabrata. Tioconazole prevents the growth and function of some fungal organisms by interfering with the production of substances needed to preserve the cell membrane. This drug is effective only for infections caused by fungal organisms. It will not work for bacterial or viral infections.
Distaxal Absorption
Systemic absorption following a single intravaginal application of tioconazole in nonpregnant patients is negligible.
Distaxal Toxicity
Symptoms of overdose include erythema, stinging, blistering, peeling, edema, pruritus, urticaria, burning,
