    Author: Puiatti P, Cervetti O, Forte M, Zina G.
    Journal: Drugs Exp Clin Res; 1986; 12(5):405-7. PubMed ID: 3720525.
    Abstract:
    Ketoconazole is a new antifungal drug, used for oral treatment, with a broad spectrum of activity. It is a member of the imidazole series and is active in superficial and deep mycotic diseases, in candidosis and pityriasis versicolor. This new imidazole derivative has been successfully administered in several cases of dermatophytosis, yeasts and pityriasis versicolor in the authors' clinic, as well as in many other research centres. Treatment has been given to patients with tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea pedis, with or without location in interdigital spaces, while the cases of tinea capitis are still under investigation. The following variants of candida infections have been treated: onychomycosis, intertrigo and mucocutaneous candidosis due to prolonged immunosuppressive therapy. No remarkable haematochemical disorders have been observed after treatment.
