Abstract

The paper deals with the present views of the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical picture, and treatments of acute vulvovaginal candidiasis (AVC). It gives data on the efficiency and safety of various AVC treatment regimens. The study conducted at the D. O. Ott Research Institute of Obstetrics and Gynecology, North-Western Branch (Saint Petersburg), has shown that livarol and sertaconazole vaginal suppositories are highly effective in treating AVC in nonpregnant women. The patients have been found to be highly loyal to the use of livarol due to its rapid abolition of the symptoms of Candida vaginitis and their adherence to its course therapy.
