Effects of natamycin eye drops

The mechanism of action of natamycin eye drops is to combine with the sterols on the fungal membrane to form a polyesterol complex, which changes the permeability of the membrane, causing the leakage of important intracellular substances such as potassium ions, nucleotides, and amino acids, thus affecting the normal metabolism of fungal cells and inhibiting their growth, achieving bacteriostatic or bactericidal effects.
