    Author: Yan L, Wen H, Zhong Y, Cao C.
    Journal: Hunan Yi Ke Da Xue Xue Bao; 1999; 24(1):71-3. PubMed ID: 11938747.
    Abstract:
    Fifty-four patients received an intermittent regimen of itraconazole (26 of them were finger onychomycosis and 28 toe onychomycosis) and were followed-up for nine months. The result showed that the clinical cure rate of fingernails was 88.5% and the mycologic cure rate was 96.4%, while the clinical cure rate of toes was 82.1% and the mycologic cure rate was 96.4%. Few adverse events were observed by 7.4%, just like nausea, gastric discomfort etc. It suggests that the pulse administration system is highly effective and has a few side-effects.
