Drugs used in Vaginal and Vulval condition, Topical Antifungal preparations
Tioconazole interacts with 14-α demethylase, a cytochrome P-450 enzyme that converts lanosterol to ergosterol, an essential component of the yeast membrane. In this way, tioconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, resulting in increased cellular permeability. Tioconazole may also inhibit endogenous respiration, interact with membrane phospholipids, inhibit the transformation of yeasts to mycelial forms and the uptake of purine, impair triglyceride and/or phospholipid biosynthesis, and inhibit the movement of calcium and potassium ions across the cell membrane by blocking the ion transport pathway known as the Gardos channel.
Topical: Apply & massage gently into the affected & surrounding skin area once or twice a day. In intertriginous areas, apply sparingly & smoothed in well to avoid macerating effects. Duration: 1-6 weeks.Vaginal candidiasis:

Pregnancy category C. Tioconazole should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, nursing should be temporarily discontinued while Tioconazole is administered.
