The invention provides application of
cinacalcet and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof in preparation of
antifungal drugs, discovers that the clinically marketed
drug cinacalcet has a new
antifungal application, realizes effective
redevelopment of existing drugs, expands treatment indications of the drugs, and provides a new technical path and a potential chemical entity for
drug reutilization. Experimental results show that
cinacalcet has a good inhibition effect on various pathogenic fungi and has certain broad-spectrum
antifungal activity. As the
medicine is clinically applied for a long time, the safety is definite, the toxic and side effects are controllable, the safety evaluation and preparation development risks in the new
medicine research and development process are remarkably reduced, and the feasibility and popularization value of industrial application are improved.
