Grenzen der Kurzzeitbehandlung von Onychomykosen

Abstract: New antifungals for oral therapy have improved the chances of healing onychomycoses. Nevertheless, in daily practice the failure rate is 20-30% both with itraconazole and terbinafine. In our investigations for the fungicidal effects of terbinafine, we could show that the same strain of Trichophyton rubrum or T. mentagrophytes in the rest period needs 1000 times higher concentration of terbinafine (2.0 to 0.002 microgram/ml) for complete fungal killing as in the growth phase. Thus resting fungi in the nail are … Show more

“…Although terbinafine in concentrations of up to 0.02 μ g ml −1 exhibits complete fungicidal efficacy against Trichophyton rubrum and T. mentagrophytes in the growth phase, we were able to demonstrate in a previous study that 1000 times higher concentrations were required to completely eradicate the same test strains in the dormant phase 8 . Our interest focused on how ciclopiroxolamine acts on dormant and proliferating dermatophyte strains.…”
