are responsible for the degradation of peroxides within the fungal
cell.
PHARMACOKINETICS
Pharmacokinetic studies in men with tagged ciclopirox solution in
polyethylene glycol 400
3+
3+
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 olamine
cream 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.
Autoradiographic studies with human cadaverous skin showed that
