“Miconazole inhibits the fungal enzyme 14α-sterol demethylase, resulting in a reduced production of ergosterol. In addition to its antifungal actions, miconazole, similarly to ketoconazole, is known to act as an antagonist of the glucocorticoid receptor. Miconazole is also known to bind to tubulin and inhibit its polymerization. Miconazole inhibits CYP2J2.”
