  • Title: Treatment of vaginal candidiasis with miconazole.
    Author: Hilton AL, Warnock DW, Milne JD, Scott AJ.
    Journal: Curr Med Res Opin; ; 5(4):295-8. PubMed ID: 630905.
    Abstract:
    An open trial was carried out in 50 women with clinical signs and mycological evidence of vaginal candidiasis to compare the effectiveness of treatment with 2% miconazole cream with that of nystatin pessaries. Both groups were given intravaginal treatment for 14 days and were followed up at monthly intervals for 3 months. Relief of symptoms and clinical signs was comparable in the two groups but the mycological cure rate at 1 month was higher with miconazole. At 2 and 3 months, however, there was no significant difference between the cure rate obtained with the two treatments in the patients still included in the study.
