Pefloxacin mesylate is a an antibacterial agent and prevents bacterial DNA replication by inhibiting DNA gyrase (topoisomerse)Target: DNA gyrasePefloxacin is a synthetic chemotherapeutic agent used to treat severe and life-threatening bacterial infections. Pefloxacin is commonly referred to as afluoroquinolone (or quinolone) drug and is a member of the fluoroquinolone class of antibacterials. It is an analog of norfloxacin. It is a synthetic fluoroquinolone, belonging to the 3rd generation of quinolones. Pefloxacin is extensively prescribed in France. Pefloxacin has not been approved for use in the United States.The bactericidal action of pefloxacin results from interference with the activity of the bacterial enzymes DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, which are needed for the transcription and replication of bacterial DNA. DNA gyrase appears to be the primary quinolone target for gram-negative bacteria. Topoisomerase IV appears to be the preferential target in gram-positive organisms. Interference with these two topoisomerases results in strand breakage of the bacterial chromosome, supercoiling, and resealing. As a result DNA replication and transcription is inhibited.
Naftifine Hydrochloride is a synthetic, broad spectrum, antifungal agent.Target: AntifungalNaftifine exhibits an interesting in vitro spectrum of activity against dermatophytes (38 strains; minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) range 0.1 to 0.2 mg/mL), aspergilli (6 strains; MIC range, 0.8 to 12.5 mg/mL), Sporothrix schenckii (2 strains; MICs, 0.8 and 1.5 mg/mL), and yeasts of the genus Candida (77 strains; MIC range, 1.5 to greater than 100 mg/mL) [1]. The MIC of naftifine for C. albicans Δ63 is 100 mg/L in Sabouraud medium (initial pH 6.5). Naftifine (50 mg/L) gives greater than 99% inhibition of sterol biosynthesis both in whole cells and in cell extracts of C. albicans. The primary action of naftifine appears to be the blocking of fungal squalene epoxidation [2].Naftifine HCl 2% cream results in clinical cure rate and clinical success rate of 33% and 84% after treatment for 4 weeks, and week 2 efficacy response rates in Naftifine HCl 2% subjects are all lower than at week 4 but are significantly higher than week 2 vehicle-treated counterparts [3]. Naftifine causes interruption of fungal ergosterol synthesis and accumulation of squalene in fungal organisms. Naftifine also has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties such as a reduction in superoxide production and a reduction in polymorphonuclear leukocyte chemotaxis/endothelial adhesion. Naftifine has shown good efficacy and safety for a variety of conditions and is a useful treatment that provides both antifungal action and relief of inflammatory signs and symptoms. Few adverse events have been noted with naftifine use, the most frequent being mild and transient burning, stinging, or itching in the application area [4].

Acyclovir, a molecule tailored to inactivate the thymidine kinase of the herpesvirus, is a guanosine analogue antiviral drug. It is a drug for HSV infection by GlaxoSmithKline.IC50 Value: 0.53-0.75 uM [3]Target: HSVin vitro: Acyclovir sensitivity was determined in a plaque-reduction assay in Vero cells. IC50 Values were consistently 2-3 fold lower in B2 compared with the H strain of Vero cells. HSV Type 2 strains were 2-10-fold less sensitive than Type 1 strains [2]. in vivo: two patients experienced a recurrence during treatment with oral acyclovir (200 mg 4 times daily) for up to 12 weeks, compared with nine during placebo treatment (P = 0.016). There was no difference between acyclovir and placebo in the time to the next recurrence following completion of treatment [3]. low-dose oral acyclovirmay be effective in the prevention of HSV infection during OKT3 treatment of seropositive patients. Continuation of acyclovir prophylaxis for two to four weeks following the conclusion of OKT3 therapy may prevent occurrence of delayed infections [4].Clinical trial: Acyclovir to Treat Patients Co-infected With HIV and Herpes Viruses in Uganda.
