1. Miconazole Nitrate (2.5 mg/g or 0.25%)
Miconazole nitrate operates by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an indispensable lipid in fungal cellular membranes. By destabilizing the membrane structure, it resolves yeast proliferation without harsh irritation to fragile infant tissue.
2. Zinc Oxide (150 mg/g or 15%)
While miconazole halts fungal division, the delicate skin barrier remains compromised. Medical-grade 15% Zinc Oxide lays down a physical protective film that keeps acidic urine and proteolytic stool enzymes away from healing skin.
