Climbazole(Cat No.:A000681)is an antifungal agent commonly used in dermatological applications to treat fungal infections, including dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and athlete’s foot. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting cell membrane integrity and preventing fungal growth. Its broad-spectrum antifungal properties make it an effective treatment against a variety of dermatophytes and yeasts. Climbazole is widely incorporated into topical formulations, such as shampoos, creams, and lotions, due to its mildness and high efficacy in controlling fungal infections.
