Treatment With a New, Broad-Spectrum Antifungal Agent: 1% Clotrimazole Solution

Nardo Zaias, MD; Francisco Battistini, MD

Arch Dermatol. 1977;113(3):307-308.

Abstract
• A 1% clotrimazole solution was used as an antifungal for Tinea versicolor, Cutaneous Candidiasis and Dermatophytosis. All studies were double-blind and controlled, active vs vehicle. The final evaluation was made at a two-week follow-up after the treatment was stopped, which for most of the clinical conditions studied, was 28 days. The 1% clotrimazole solution was found to be effective with no local irritation noted.
