Abstract

This study evaluated the antimycobacterial activity of econazole against multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC90) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC>99.99) against MDR strains were found to be 0.120-0.125μg/mL and 0.125-0.150μg/mL, respectively, demonstrating the antimycobacterial potential of econazole.
