[The possibilities for treating vaginal candidiasis with a single dose of clotrimazole 500 mg].
The authors are describing their own clinical experience with the treatment of vaginal candidosis with the application of a single dose clotrimazole 500 (Canesten 1) with only one vaginal globule. In 81% of the cases is obtained a perfect result with disappearing of the clinical symptoms (pruritus, bleeding, discomfort during excretion of urine) and negativisation of the microbiological results. In 9% the esteemed clinical result is not obtained. The authors are making the conclusion, that the treatment with a unique vaginal globule can be useful in light and acute cases of mycotic colpitis in non-pregnant as well as in pregnant women. A recommendation is given for follow-up of the pregnant patients in the last 3-4 weeks of the pregnancy, for a candidosis check-up and for prescription of an adequate treatment.
