Medicine Description trosyd 28%
Trosyd 28% Antiseptic Solution is a medication that works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes. By disrupting the formation of ergosterol, tioconazole compromises the integrity of the fungal cell membrane, leading to cell lysis and ultimately the death of the fungus. This antifungal activity not only targets dermatophytes but also other types of fungi, making Trosyd effective against a range of superficial fungal infections.
