  • Lamisil Versus Clotrimazole in the Treatment of Vulvovaginal Candidiasis

Received: March 2012, Accepted: October 2012. ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Vaginal candidiasis is a common disease in women during their lifetime and occurs in diabetes patients, during pregnancy and oral contraceptives users. Although several antifungals are routinely used for treatment; however, vaginal candidiasis is a challenge for patients and gynecologists. The aim of the present study was to evaluate terbinafine (Lamisil) on Candida vaginitis versus clotrimazole. Materials and Methods: In the present study women suspected to have vulvovaginal candidiasis were sampled and disease confirmed using direct smear and culture examination from vaginal discharge. Then, patients were randomly divided into two groups, the first group (32 cases) was treated with clotrimazole and the next (25 cases) with Lamisil. All patients were followed-up to three weeks of treatment and therapeutic effects of both antifungal were compared. Results: Our results shows that 12 (37.5%) patients were completely treated with clotrimazole during two weeks and, 6(18.8%) patients did not respond to drugs and were refereed for fluconazole therapy. Fourteen (43.8%) patients showed moderate response and clotrimazole therapy was extended for one more week.

  • Fungal Infections (Mycoses): Dermatophytoses (Tinea, Ringworm)
    Editorial | Journal of Gandaki Medical College-Nepal Fungal Infections (Mycoses): Dermatophytoses (Tinea, Ringworm) Reddy KR Professor & Head Microbiology Department Gandaki Medical College & Teaching Hospital, Pokhara, Nepal Medical Mycology, a study of fungal epidemiology, ecology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention and treatment in human beings, is a newly recognized discipline of biomedical sciences, advancing rapidly. Earlier, the fungi were believed to be mere contaminants, commensals or nonpathogenic agents but now these are commonly recognized as medically relevant organisms causing potentially fatal diseases. The discipline of medical mycology attained recognition as an independent medical speciality in the world sciences in 1910 when French dermatologist Journal of Raymond Jacques Adrien Sabouraud (1864 - 1936) published his seminal treatise Les Teignes. This monumental work was a comprehensive account of most of then GANDAKI known dermatophytes, which is still being referred by the mycologists.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND Sertaconazole is a new imidazole fungicide introduced for vulvovaginal candidiasis. It has an azole group with benzothiophene that inhibits biosynthesis of ergosterol and brings about a massive leak of cytoplasm with consequent fungal cell death. The objective of this study is to evaluate clinical efficacy of single-dose vaginal pessary Sertaconazole versus Clotrimazole in uncomplicated vaginal candidiasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients attending gynaecological and obstetric OPD with a clinical diagnosis of vaginal candidiasis are studied. Vaginal swabs are taken for microscopy and gram staining examination from patients. Patients in Group 1 receives single-dose vaginal pessary Sertaconazole 300 mg and subjects in Group 2 single-dose vaginal pessary Clotrimazole 500 mg. Patients are evaluated at the end of 7 days and 28 days for symptomatic relief, side effect and mycological clearance. Main Outcome Measures: Primary outcome will be clinical cure. Secondary outcome is mycological cure. Study Design- A prospective, non-randomised, controlled parallel trial. Setting- PESIMSR, a tertiary referral centre, Kuppam. RESULTS In gynaecological group, 27.3% of people in sertaconazole group and 77.3% patients in clotrimazole group had symptoms at the end of 7 days. At the end of 28 days only 15.8% in sertaconazole group had symptoms, while 55.6% patients had persisting symptoms in clotrimazole group.
