Read the full article on Wikipedia“Clotrimazole is an imidazole derivative that works by inhibiting the growth of individual Candida or fungal cells by altering the permeability of the fungal cell wall. The drug impairs the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of the fungal cell membrane, by inhibiting the P450 enzyme lanosterol 14-alpha demethylase. Clotrimazole may slow fungal growth or result in fungal cell death.”
