Biochem/physiol Actions
Micafungin is a semisynthetic echinocandin antifungal. Micafungin works by inhibiting the enzyme β(1,3)-D-Glucan synthase and thereby disturbing the integrity of the fungal cell wall. This enzyme does not exist in mammalian systems.
Micafungin is used for first-line treatment of invasive and esophageal candidiasis in addition to prophylaxis of Candida infections in both adults and children.
