Fungata 150 (Fluconazole) belongs to the triazole class of antifungals. It inhibits fungal cytochrome P450-dependent enzyme lanosterol 14-α-demethylase, an essential enzyme for converting lanosterol to ergosterol — a vital component of fungal cell membranes. Inhibition of ergosterol synthesis disrupts membrane integrity, leading to cellular leakage and fungal death.
