Vaginal ovules - 100 mg
Mikonal contains the active substance miconazole nitrate which is an imidazole antifungal with similar activity to that of ketoconazole. In vitro, it also has some activity against Cladosporium, Madurella, some Phialophora, Pseudallescheria boydii and gram-positive bacteria including some staphylococci and streptococci.
A great number of fungi sensible to miconazole can be inhibited in concentrations of 2 mcg per ml or less.
Small amounts of miconazole are absorbed through the skin or mucous membranes when it is used locally, as cream, solution or vaginal ovules.
Mikonal is used in vaginal and vulvovaginal mycotic infections caused mainly by Candida. The symptoms of this infection include itching, redness and white vaginal discharge. Ovules destroy fungi that cause these infections and some bacteria, which are also present.
