Skin mycoses are a significant medical and social problem in the modern world, with approximately every 5th inhabitant of the planet suffering from this infectious disease. In recent years, there has been an increase in the prevalence of pathogenic fungal strains resistant to classical antifungal therapy. This is due to the irrational use of drugs, insufficient patient compliance with treatment, and diagnostic gaps. A rational choice of topical antifungals can significantly reduce the need for systemic drugs and increase the effectiveness of dermatomycosis therapy. The domestic company INTELBIO has developed a combined antifungal cream Mycolept with an additional antipruritic component for the treatment of patients with fungal skin infections. This article describes an open comparative study of Mycolept cream, which contains 1% ciclopirox, climbazole, and polidocanol, versus placebo and sertocanasol.
