Project Description

Molecular Formula	C21H22ClN
Molecular Weight	323.9
Standard	USP
Uses	Naftifine is used for skin infections such as athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm.
Mechanism Of Action	Naftifine appears to interfere with sterol biosynthesis by inhibiting the enzyme squalene 2, 3-epoxidase. This inhibition of enzyme activity results in decreased amounts of sterols, especially ergosterol, and a corresponding accumulation of squalene in the cells.
