title: [Experiences with an antimycotic tampon in the treatment of saccharomycetic vaginal infection].
abstract: Antimycotic (miconazole) medicated tampons were used for treatment in 53 patients with vaginal saccharomycetic infections as evidenced by hanging drop and on culture. A short term 2 1/2 day treatment with 5 tampons showed a success rate of 92.5%. The fast relief of symptoms like discharge, itching and burning is an improvement of the medicated tampon treatment. The new medicated tampons are considered as improvement of local vaginal treatment.
