35 Itraconazole is a synthetic antifungal agent that inhibits cytochrome P-450-dependent enzymes required for synthesis. Itraconazole has antimycotic proper ties. Formulated for both topical and systemic use, itracon azole preferentially inhibits fugal cytochrome P450 40 enzymes, resulting in a decrease in fungal ergosterol Syn thesis. Because of its low toxicity profile, this agent can be used for long-term maintenance treatment of chronic fungal infections. The molecular formula for itraconazole is CHCNO. Itraconazole is shown below.
