The mechanism of action of clotrimazole is as follows:                                 1. Inhibits epoxidation of squalene in fungi                                                                         2. Disrupts the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and proteins in fungi                                               3. Inhibits fungal cell wall synthesis4. Inhibits ergosterol synthesis in fungi                                                                                 5. Causes disruption of the mitotic spindle and inhibition of fungal mitosis

The following is the drug of choice for severe systemic mycoses such as cryptococcosis:                                                                                          1.   Nystatin2.   Chlorhexidine3.   Terbinafine4.   Griseofulvin5.   Amphotericin B
