A new treatment of vaginal candidiasis: three-day treatment with econazole.
From an open comparative multicentric trial it became clear that econazole was an active and well-tolerated agent for the treatment of vulvo-vaginal mycoses. Combined treatment with pessaries and econazole cream seems to be worthwhile in order to isolate the vagina from possible Candida reservoirs or to hasten symptomatic relief.
