Schlect) and Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb) extracts has an antifungaleffect on Candida albicans by using the experimental study of post-test control group design. Method: This study uses the Kirby-Baurer method and then measures the inhibitory zone byusing calipers then comparing the inhibition zone of each extract. Results: The research results show no difference in the effectiveness of each extract, and noinhibition zone was found for each extract. Conclusion: This study concludes that the two extracts are not effective against C.albicans
