A Double-Blind Study Comparing Daktacort®, Miconazole and Hydrocortisone in Inflammatory Skin Infections
View through CrossRef
In a 4-week double-blind trial, Daktacort® cream was compared with each of its constituents (i.e. miconazole 2% and hydrocortisone 1%) in a total of 63 patients (aged 12–60 years) with inflamed skin infections of bacterial or mycotic origin. Daktacort treatment induced a significant improvement of all symptoms within 1 week and was superior to both miconazole and hydrocortisone in suppressing the inflammation. This tendency persisted throughout the trial but at the end miconazole treatment proved also superior to hydrocortisone.
