  • Title: [Treatment of recurrent vulvovaginal candidosis with mycosyst (fluconazole)].
    Author: Pekhlivanov B, Amaliev I, Ivancheva Kh, Zisova L.
    Journal: Akush Ginekol (Sofiia); 2005; 44 Suppl 2():25-7. PubMed ID: 16028400.
    Abstract:
    The authors treat 15 women with recurrent vulvovaginal candidosis with 3 sequential oral 150-mg doses of fluconazole (Mycosys, Gedeon Richter), each dose administered 72 hours after the first dose. Candida albicans was isolated in 14 women and Candida glabrata--in one. 14 days later all women had no clinical signs of vulvovaginal candidosis. Three months after the treatment only 11 women consulted for a checking exam--and all of them without clinical complaints, though in three of them (73.3%) C. albicans was isolated from the vaginal discharge. The authors discuss the difficulties in the treatment of recurrent vulvovaginal candidosis and the advantages of the sequential type of therapy with fluconazole.
