Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Podiatrole Work?

  • Inhibiting fungal cell membrane synthesis: It disrupts the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, leading to increased membrane permeability and ultimately cell death.
  • Preventing fungal growth: By inhibiting key enzymes involved in fungal metabolism, it effectively reduces the growth and spread of the infection.


Common Dosages

  • Topical solution: Common concentrations may vary, but typically it is formulated for direct application to the affected area.

Typical Dosing

  • The usual recommended dosing is to apply a thin layer of Podiatrole to the affected area once daily, or as directed by a healthcare provider. Treatment duration may vary based on the type and severity of the fungal infection.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

Advice From The Pharmacist
