Pharmacological action
Pimafucin - fungicidal, antifungal.
Pharmacodynamics
Natamycin irreversibly binds to the sterols of the cell membranes of fungi, disrupting the integrity and function, which leads to the death of microorganisms.
Most pathogenic yeasts, especially Candida albicans, are sensitive to natamycin. Dermatophytes are less sensitive to natamycin. Primary resistance to natamycin is not found in clinical practice.
Pharmacokinetics
Natamycin has only local action, not absorbed from the digestive tract, through the skin and mucous membranes.
Indications
Vaginitis, vulvitis, vulvovaginitis, caused mainly by Candida fungi.

Hypersensitivity to the components of the drug.
