Fenticonazole tissue levels after the application of 3 different dosage forms of vaginal ovules
Fenticonazole vaginal ovules of 200 mg, 600 mg and 1,000 mg were administered to 42 women prior to gynecological surgery. Tissue concentrations in the vaginal mucosa were determined after 3 h and 12 h in biopsy specimens taken from the same position in the posterior fornix. Tissue concentrations were higher at 3 h in comparison to 12 h with all 3 doses. There was no statistical difference between the concentrations yielded by the 3 different ovules at 3 h, while after 12 h the concentrations were dose-dependent and significantly higher after 1,000 mg in comparison to 200 mg, but not to 600 mg
