CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Ciclopirox is a broad-spectrum, antifungal agent that inhibits the
growth of pathogenic dermatophytes,
yeasts, and _Malassezia furfur_. Ciclopirox exhibits fungicidal
activity _in vitro_ against isolates of
_Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Epidermophyton
floccosum, Microsporum canis,_ and
_Candida albicans_.
Pharmacokinetic studies in men with tagged ciclopirox solution in
polyethylene glycol 400 showed an
average of 1.3% absorption of the dose when it was applied topically
to 750 cm on the back followed
by occlusion for 6 hours. The biological half-life was 1.7 hours and
excretion occurred via the kidney.
Two days after application only 0.01% of the dose applied could be
found in the urine. Fecal excretion
was negligible.
Penetration studies in human cadaverous skin from the back, with
ciclopirox cream 0.77% with tagged
ciclopirox showed the presence of 0.8 to 1.6% of the dose in the
stratum corneum 1.5 to 6 hours after
application. The levels in the dermis were still 10 to 15 times above
the minimum inhibitory
concentrations.
