Product Description:

Natamycin, also known as pimaricin, is a topical antifungal medication used primarily to treat fungal infections around the eye. It is effective against infections of the eyelids, conjunctiva, and cornea and is commonly administered as eyedrops. Natamycin belongs to the macrolide and polyene families of medications and works by disrupting the fungal cell membrane, leading to fungal cell death. This targeted mechanism makes it highly effective against a wide range of ocular fungal pathogens.

In addition to its medical use, natamycin is employed in the food industry as a preservative to prevent fungal growth in various products. While generally well tolerated, allergic reactions may occur, and its safety during pregnancy or breastfeeding has not been fully established.

Natamycin was first discovered in 1955 and approved for medical use in the United States in 1978. It is listed on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines due to its importance in treating serious fungal infections. Natamycin is produced through fermentation of specific strains of the bacterium Streptomyces, ensuring a reliable and consistent supply for medical and industrial applications.
