Antifungal pharmaceutical preparation contains copper(I) oxide and/or copper, and it is suitable for prevention and treatment of granulating and other fungal infections, some bacterial and viral infections. The copper(I) oxide and/or copper preparations may also contain essential trace elements and reducing agents, especially ascorbic acid. The copper(I)-oxide is prepared in a large crystal form, by a reduction process using sugar in an aqueous solution of copper(II) oxide-hydrogen-carbonate-halogen complex of formula [Cu(HCO3)X3]2>+> where X = F, Cl, Br, at 90-100 [deg]C.
