[Bifonazole for the topical treatment of surface mycoses--progress!].

69 patients with superficial mycosis were treated with 1% Bifonazol cream once a day. 48 of them who suffered from tinea pedis interdigitalis received Bifonazol for 3 weeks, the remaining 21 patients who had superficial candidiasis applied it over a period of 4 weeks. The local tolerance of the cream has been very good. Control examinations 3 and 14 days after treatment proved 59 (89%) of all patients to be cured, i.e. 40 of those who had suffered from tinea pedis and 19 of the group with candidiasis.
