butenafine and Dermatomycoses

butenafine has been researched along with Dermatomycoses in 4 studies

butenafine: studied on experimental dermatophytosis
butenafine : Trimethylamine in which hydrogen atoms attached to different methyl groups are substituted by 1-naphthyl and 4-tert-butylphenyl groups. It is an inhibitor of squalene epoxidase, an enzyme responsible for the creation of sterols needed in fungal cell membranes, and is used as its hydrochloride salt for treatment of dermatological fungal infections.

Dermatomycoses: Superficial infections of the skin or its appendages by any of various fungi.
