Zusammenfassung:Sixty-one patients with superficial candidiasis, confirmed on entry by clinical examination and mycological culture, were treated with a single daily application of a 1% bifonazole gel over a period of 4 weeks. Patients were seen every week during treatment and then followed-up for 2 weeks. An overall assessment of response to treatment, based on the clinical and mycological culture findings at the 14-day follow-up visit, showed that the results were very good in 49 and moderate in 9 patients, with only 3 patients being considered as failing to respond. Local tolerance was very good, but burning was reported by 1 patient, burning and itching by 1, and ardor and irritation by one. All these side-effects occurred at the start of treatment and they subsided without interruption of bifonazole treatment
