Description / Action: 

Carel-M Shampoo is a medicated shampoo recommended for dogs and cats for the topical treatment of dermatitis. Miconazole nitrate and chlorhexidine combination is effective on fungal and bacterial infections.

Pharmacodynamics:

The primary mechanism of Miconazole Nitrate is inhibition of the CYP450 14-alpha-lanosterol demethylase enzyme, which results in altered ergosterol production and impaired fungal cell membrane composition and permeability, which in turn leads to cation, phosphate, and low molecular weight protein leakage and causes fungal death and further multiplication.

The positively charged chlorhexidine molecule reacts with negatively charged phosphate groups on microbial cell surfaces – this reaction both destroys the integrity of the cell, allowing leakage of intracellular material, and allows chlorhexidine to enter the cell, causing precipitation of cytoplasmic components and causes bacterial death and controls its growth.
