  • Title: [Clinical study of itraconazole for the treatment of Tinea cruris, Tinea corporis and Tinea pedis interdigital].
    Author: Zaitz C, Ruiz LR, Drullis EM, Gurfinkel P, Ciarnuto MA.
    Journal: Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo; 1990; 32(4):299-303. PubMed ID: 1966257.
    Abstract:
    The authors studied 31 patients with Tinea cruris, corporis or pedis interdigital. The patients were treated with 100 mg of itraconazole, once a day, during the lunch, for 15 days. Mycological and clinical evaluations were performed at the pre-treatment, by the end of treatment and 2 weeks after finishing the treatment. The results showed that itraconazole is effective for the treatment of dermatophytosis, at the studied posology, with 100% of mycological cure. Clinical evaluation showed a significant reduction (Friedman test--p less than 0.001) of signs and symptoms.
