Miconazole in the treatment of oral candidosis.

Miconazole was used as sucking tablets in the treatment of oral candidosis in 11 patients in whom other antimycotics had been without effect for at least a preceding 3-month period. Seven out of the 11 patients were cured within 3 weeks, three after 6 and 7 weeks and 3 1/2 months, respectively. In one patient treatment was withdrawn without cure after 3 1/4 months. The taste of the tablets was characterized by four patients as extremely unpleasant. No side effects were seen in any of the patients.
