Drugs for Treatment of Vulvovaginal Candidiasis: Comparative Efficacy of Agents and Regimens

Abstract
Various agents are available for the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis. Imidazole agents (clotrimazole, miconazole, butoconazole, and terconazole) are preferred because of their greater efficacy, shorter treatment regimens, and ease of administration. Although the various imidazole compounds are equaly efficacious, different treatment schedules are recommended depending on clinical situations. Additionally, different formulations are available that provide clinicians and patients with the opportunity to select the most appropriate agent.
