Cloronazole is an antifungal medication that belongs to the azole class, used primarily to treat fungal infections. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting their growth and replication. Cloronazole is typically applied topically for skin infections but may also be used in other formulations depending on the type of infection being treated. As with any medication, it is important to use cloronazole under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
