Table 3.
Azoles susceptibility pattern of Candida spp. isolated from vagina of women with or without vulvovaginitis with previous miconazole treatment (≤3 or ≥4 times). Total number of isolates = 57 (consisting of 22 and 35 isolates from women taken miconazole ≤3 and ≥4 times, respectively, during the last year before taking the samples). When the two groups (≤3 and ≥4) were compared as to miconazole nonsusceptibility, the P value was < .01.
