Re: current yeast problem patient - saccharomysesFrom: ainsron@msn.comThu Jul 19 15:26:08 2001
I've seen Genetian Violet solution on the shelf at Longs Drug around here, have used it occaisionally. Its messy, but works. Excellent reference on it in Friedrich's, Benign disease of the vulva and vagina. He recommends a 1% aqueous solution painted on the affected mucous membrane or skin at weekly or monthly intervals, depending on results. He considers it to be first-line therapy for all Candida infections. It is not contraindicated during pregnancy. The vaginal walls should be swabbed free of discharge then painted with the dye, a dry swab then is inserted to absorb any excess liquid. Patient should avoid intercourse and wear disposable panty liners for the first 3-4 days after treatment. Stains on hard surfaces are unlikely to occur but remove with EtOH. Fabric stains disappear with bleach. "So effective is this therapy that it sould be considered the 'gold standard' by which the othes are measured."

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
