[1% bifonazole lotion in the therapy of otomycosis].

Twenty-five patients suffering from otomycosis were treated once daily with bifonazole lotion 1% for a period of 4-15 days (means +/- DS 9.5 +/- 2.6 days). Two days before the end of the treatment complete resolution of the clinical picture in 23/23 patients was observed. Direct mycological and cultural examinations undertaken during the same control visit showed complete eradication of the responsible fungi in all 23 patients. Two-four weeks after the end of therapy a further control visit was carried out, during which 2/21 cases with clinical and mycological relapses were seen; both patients had chronic otitis. Tolerability of bifonazole was satisfactory in all cases but one, who interrupted treatment because of pain and local hyperemia where the lotion had been applied. In some patients suffering from chronic otitis application of the lotion caused slight and short-lasting pain and burning of the ear.
