fenbendazole and Mycetoma

fenbendazole has been researched along with Mycetoma in 1 studies

Fenbendazole: Antinematodal benzimidazole used in veterinary medicine.
fenbendazole : A member of the class of benzimidazoles that is 1H-benzimidazole which is substituted at positons 2 and 5 by (methoxycarbonyl)amino and phenylsulfanediyl groups, respectively. A broad-spectrum anthelmintic, it is used, particularly in veterinary medicine, for the treatment of nematodal infections.

Mycetoma: A chronic progressive subcutaneous infection caused by species of fungi (eumycetoma), or actinomycetes (actinomycetoma). It is characterized by tumefaction, abscesses, and tumor-like granules representing microcolonies of pathogens, such as MADURELLA fungi and bacteria ACTINOMYCETES, with different grain colors.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The current antifungal agents used to treat eumycetoma are itraconazole or terbinafine, however, their cure rates are low."5.72Screening the pandemic response box identified benzimidazole carbamates, Olorofim and ravuconazole as promising drug candidates for the treatment of eumycetoma. ( Bonifaz, A; Burrows, J; Eadie, K; Fahal, A; Konings, M; Lim, W; Nyuykonge, B; Perry, B; Samby, K; Smeets, J; Todd, M; van de Sande, W; Verbon, A, 2022)
