Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The efficacy of miconazole and nystatin in the treatment of vulvovaginal candidosis was compared in a multicenter trial involving 94 pregnant patients. All patients had subjective complaints and were mycologically positive. Miconazole 2% vaginal cream was applied once daily for at least 10 days by 45 patients, whereas the 49 others received nystatin tablets for intravaginal application during 7 to 9 days. At the first examination following treatment, the cure rate with miconazole was 83% and with nystatin 68%. Follow-up examinations revealed a significantly lower recurrence rate in the miconazole-treated group. No important adverse experiences were noted.
