Shorter treatment for vaginal candidosis : comparison between single-dose oral fluconazole and three-day treatment with local miconazole . Fluconazole is an effective , simple and safe , although slightly expensive , agent for the treatment of vaginal candidosis . Single-dose fluconazole ( 150 mg ) administered orally in capsule form was compared with three-day local treatment with miconazole pessaries in the treatment of vaginal candidosis in a randomized study in Finland . Cure rates were good ( > 80 % ) in randomized patient groups assessed both clinically and by the results of yeast cultures . Oral administration was preferred to local therapy by patients in both the miconazole and fluconazole groups . For the time being , fluconazole is not recommended for use during pregnancy or lactation .
