Comparison of ketoconazole and griseofulvin in the treatment of tinea pedis . Twenty-nine patients with mycologically proven tinea pedis were randomly allocated to oral treatment with either ketoconazole 200 mg daily or griseofulvin 1 g daily for a period of up to 8 weeks . Mycological cure rate at 4 weeks was 33 % for ketoconazole and 29 % for griseofulvin , and at 8 weeks was 53 % and 57 % respectively . The efficacy of both drugs in the treatment of interdigital tinea pedis is similar , and is considerably lower than that found with topical imidazole preparations where cure rates of over 70 % are generally expected .
