REVIEW A triazole antifungal drug used in the treatment and prevention of superficial and systemic fungal infections. Fluconazole inhibits the fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme 14a-demethylase. Mammalian demethylase activity is much less sensitive to fluconazole than fungal demethylase. This inhibition prevents the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cytoplasmic membrane, and subsequent accumulation of 14a-methyl sterols.[
