   • It binds to microtubules in the fungal cells, disrupting their function and preventing the fungal cells from dividing and multiplying.

2. Indications:

   • Griseofulvin is indicated for the treatment of dermatophyte infections, which are fungal infections caused by certain species of fungi known as dermatophytes.
   • It is particularly effective against infections of the skin, hair, and nails caused by dermatophytes.
