Griseofulvin(Cat No.:A000742)is an antifungal medication used primarily to treat dermatophytic infections such as ringworm, athlete’s foot, and jock itch. It works by binding to fungal microtubules, disrupting mitosis and inhibiting fungal cell division. Griseofulvin is particularly effective for infections involving hair, nails, and skin, as it accumulates in keratin-rich tissues, providing targeted antifungal action. Administered orally, it requires prolonged treatment to allow complete replacement of infected tissues. Griseofulvin is a well-established antifungal, offering a reliable treatment option for chronic or severe fungal infections.
