A synthetic imidazole derivative, containing a benzothiophene ring, with antifungal, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-pruritic activity. Besides its ability to inhibit the synthesis of ergosterol, the benzothiophene ring of sertaconazole is able to insert into the fungal cell wall instead of tryptophan.
