  • Title: Treatment off vulvovaginal candidal infection with miconazole-coated tampons.
    Author: Bergstein NA.
    Journal: Br J Vener Dis; 1980 Dec; 56(6):408-11. PubMed ID: 7470219.
    Abstract:
    In an evaluation of three different treatment regimens miconazole-coated tampons proved to be effective for the relief of vulvovaginal candidal infection. A mycological and clinical cure rate of about 93% was achieved in patients treated with one tampon twice daily (up to a total of 15 tampons); 61% of patients were mycologically cured with a regimen of one tampon daily for only five days. Reinfection rates were less than 4% with all three regimens. The tampons were well accepted by all the patients.
