Miconazole Nitrate Micronized USP-43 (CAS 22832-87-7)

Miconazole Nitrate USP-43

Miconazole Nitrate USP-43 is a high-purity pharmaceutical active ingredient (API) belonging to the imidazole class of antifungal agents. It is widely used in the formulation of topical and mucosal antifungal medications for the treatment of dermatological and yeast infections.

This material conforms to USP-43 specifications, making it suitable for use in regulated pharmaceutical manufacturing environments and compounding applications. It is micronized to provide better dispersion, smoother texture, and improved bioavailability in topical systems.

Miconazole Nitrate exhibits broad-spectrum antifungal activity, targeting both dermatophytes and yeasts by disrupting fungal cell membrane synthesis.

Mechanism of Action (Technical Insight)

Miconazole Nitrate inhibits the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. This disruption compromises membrane integrity, leading to leakage of cellular contents and fungal cell death.

This well-established mechanism contributes to:

1. Broad-spectrum antifungal efficacy
2. Reliable performance in topical formulations
3. Proven clinical effectiveness

This product is ideal for:

1. Pharmaceutical manufacturers (OTC and generic drug producers)
2. Contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs/CDMOs)
3. Compounding pharmacies
4. Cosmetic and personal care manufacturers
5. Veterinary product manufacturers
6. Universities and research laboratories
7. Chemical distributors and resellers
