  • Title: Treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis in pregnancy. A comparative study.
    Author: McNellis D, McLeod M, Lawson J, Pasquale SA.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1977 Dec; 50(6):674-8. PubMed ID: 927757.
    Abstract:
    A carefully controlled comparative study showed miconazole nitrate 2% vaginal cream (Monistat) to be a highly effective agent in the treatment of vaginal candidiasis in pregnant subjects. Miconazole nitrate was significantly more effective than nystatin (Mycostatin) in the treatment of vaginal candidiasis in all three trimesters of pregnancy, and also more effective regardless of whether the candidal infection was primary or recurrent. Observations relating to the safety of this therapy during pregnancy were made and discussed.
