Tác dụng
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Caspofungin, a semisynthetic echinocandin antifungal, shows activity against Aspergillus and Candida species. It inhibits the synthesis of β-1,3-D-glucan, an essential component of the fungal cell wall that is not present in mammalian cells.
Pharmacokinetics:
Distribution: Distributed into the liver, lung, spleen, and GI tract. Plasma protein binding: Approx 97%, mainly to albumin.
Metabolism: Slowly metabolised in the liver via hydrolysis and N-acetylation. Undergoes spontaneous chemical degradation into an open-ring peptide.
Excretion: Via urine (41%, primarily as metabolites, approx 1% as unchanged drug) and faeces (35%, primarily as metabolites). Elimination half-life: Immediate (α-phase); 9-11 hr (β-phase); 40-50 hr (γ-phase).
