MYCOSESDefinition • They are diseases provoked by fungi, that can be divided among deep or SUPERFICIAL
Where? Skin Hair Nails Caused by? Dermatophytes Moulds Yeasts SUPERFICIAL MYCOSES
Pluricelularis, filamentous ANTROPOPHILIC ZOOPHILIC GEOPHILIC Trichophyton (hair, skin, nails) Microsporum (hair, skin) Epidermophyton (skin) DERMATOPHYTES
DERMATOPHYTOSIS Clinical forms Tinea: • Body (corporis) • inguinal area (cruris) • feet (pedis) • hands (manuum) • hairy leather (capitis)
CANDIDIASIS • Yeast • Saprofit PREDISPONENT FACTORS Patogenic (opportunist) skin - eritema, oedema, pruritus nails - paronichia,white spots, striaes
SUPERFICIAL MYCOSIS Clinical Aspects • ALTERATION OF THE COLORATION • ALTERATION OF THE RELIEF • ALTERATION OF THE SENSIBILITY • ALTERATION OF THE CONSISTENCY
SUPERFICIAL MYCOSIS Predisponent/ Trigger Factors • HEAT • HUMIDITY • EXCESSIVE PERSPIRATION • INDIVIDUAL SENSIBILITY • Obesity • Pregnancy • Circulatory problems • Diabetes • Corticoterapy • AIDS
Nails fungal infections: DERMATOPHYTES - 85% Yeasts - 14% Non dermatophytes molds - 1% ONYCHOMYCOSISDefinition
ONYCHOMYCOSISEpidemiology • 30-50% of all nail diseases • 30% of the micoses • 2 to 20% of the general population • 48% of older people (70 years) • 80% in toenails - 80% Caused by dermatophytes • 20% in the fingernails - 75% Caused by yeasts

ONYCHOMYCOSISTherapy • General cares • Local cares • Topical medications • Systemic medications
ONYCHOMYCOSISTreatment selection criteria • Causative pathogen • Potencial adverse effects • Dosage schedule • Patient complience • Age and health of patient • Prior antifungal therapy • Allergic history • Cost
Mechanism of action Antimicotic drugs Drugs with capacity of penetrating in the membrane of the fungi, that is quite resistant, and to act: in the nuclear metabolism in the cellular breathing in the cytoplasmic membrane
ONYCHOMYCOSIS Systemic Drugs • New Drugs • Itraconazol • Terbinafine • Fluconazol OLD DRUGS • Griseofulvin • Cetoconazol • Drug interactions • ADVERSE EVENTS • Headache, GI symtoms - diarrhea, dyspepsia • Elevated liver function tests - 0.3 - 5%
SUPERFICIAL MYCOSIS Systemic Drugs • Griseofulvin • IMIDAZOLICS • Cetoconazol • Itraconazol • Fluconazol • ALILAMINES • Terbinafine
Nuclear function GRISEOFULVIN Hepatotoxicity Long term teraphy (6 months fingernails, 18 m toenails) High relapses rates Dermatophites (it doesn't act in yeasts) « Low cost » ONYCHOMYCOSIS Old Systemic Drugs
ONYCHOMYCOSIS Old Systemic Drugs • CETOCONAZOL • fulminant hepatotoxicity (1:10.000) • Low cure rates • Drug interactions • Hipotalamo- hipofise - adrenal
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Itraconazol / Fluconazol / Terbinafina ADVANTAGES • Persistence until 6 months after the interruption of the treatment • Reduction of: • Treatment Duration • Adverse reactions incidence • Failure rates
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Itraconazol Triazole antifungal agent Increased specificity for fungal rather than mammalian cytochrome P450 enzimes Decreases the risk of drug interactions Broad spectrum (dermatophites and yeasts) Drug interactions - terfenadin, astemizol, sinvastatin, lovastatin, midazolan, triazolan, cisapride
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Itraconazol Pharmacokinetics Strong affinity for keratinazed tissue Concentration in nails 90 days after a 7 days course of medication exccds the MIC of common dermatophytes Pulse therapy - 7 days/month 2 - 3 months
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Itraconazol Efficacy Cure rates - 35 - 86% toenails Relapses - 9 - 11% (9 - 12 months) Safety Drug interactions Elevated liver function tests - 0.3 - 5%
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Terbinafine Allylamine antifungal agent Blocks ergosterol synthesis by inhibiting squalene epoxidase - increase squalene, toxic for fungal cells Limitate spectrum (activity against yeasts is variable)
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Terbinafine Pharmacokinetics Concentration in nails 90 days after a 7 days course of medication excceds the MIC of common dermatophytes 250 mg/d - 6 weeks treatment in fingernails 12 weeks treatment in toenails
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Terbinafine Efficacy Cure rates - 90%fingernails / 80% toenails Relapses - 6 - 12%(12 months) Safety Well tolerated Headache (13%), GI symtoms - diarrhea, dyspepsia
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Fluconazol Bis Triazole antifungal agent Increased specificity for fungal rather than mammalian cytochrome P450 enzimes Broad spectrum (dermatophites and yeasts) Drug interactions - terfenadin, astemizol, sinvastatin, lovastatin, midazolan, triazolan, cisapride, antiacids, rifampin, anticoagulants, phenitoin, ciclosporin, theophilin, hypoglicemic agents
ONYCHOMYCOSIS New Systemic Drugs Fluconazol Pharmacokinetics Strong affinity for keratinazed tissue Levels up to 50 times those found in plasma on the stratum corneum of nails Concentration in nails 2 weeks after medication above the MIC of common dermatophytes and nondermatophytes Pulse therapy - 150 - 300mg/ once weekly
CICLOPIROX (loprox*, HMR) celular breath (ATP production) “Fungicida” Nail lacquer Broad Spectrum: Dermatophites Yeasts start 3 times/ week ONYCHOMYCOSIS Topical Drugs
ONYCHOMYCOSIS Topical Drugs AMOROLFINE Solution FILM • Active - 5% • Polimer (metacrílic acid) • Plastificant • Solvent (ethanol) Solvent evaporation • Active - 25% • Polimer • Plastificant
ONYCHOMYCOSIS Topical Drugs - LOCERYL • Adequate vehicle - film • Safety • Efficacy • Once a week - praticity • Broad- spectrum
LOCERYL PHARMACOLOGICAL ASPECTSMode of action • Deprives the membrane of ergosterol and causes accumulation of unusual sterols • Morphological changes in nuclear membranes, mytochondria, vacuoles, cytoplasm, cytoplasmic membrane and the cell wall • Necrosis of the cell
ONYCHOMYCOSIS Choose of the treatment Combined teraphy TOPICAL TOPICAL + SYSTEMIC Courtesy dr. Baran
ONYCHOMYCOSIS Choose of JUST topical treatment • % of nail plate affected - less than 60% • Distance between the matrix and border involvement more than 6mm (next slide) • Type of onychomycosis - superficial or distal subungeal • Number of affected nails - 1 or 2 • Disease time - less than 5 years
