[Vulvovaginal candidiasis in girls (guidelines for a practitioner)].
There are many publications on the problems of the vaginal candidiasis treatment. Still, the actuality is in the frequency of the relapses and registration of the pediatric cases. Unfortunately, the majority of the pediatrists prescribe antibiotics but either forget to prescribe the simultaneous use of antifungal drugs, or prescribe nystatin, an antimycotic, that is known to be active only in the intestine lumen. As a result, candidiasis of the stomatopharynx or vagina is developed. Of no less importance is the fact of marketing many generics in Russia, which often prove to be false after their detailed investigation. The paper presents specific characteristics pertaining to the origin and development of vulvovaginal candidiasis in girls and indicates drugs with proved efficacy in normalization of the vagina microbiocenosis in girls.
