The therapeutic efficacy of miocamycin against Ureaplasma urealyticum and Chlamydia trachomatis was the object of this study. Two different groups of patients were included in the trial: 40 males and 20 females affected by NGU and AUS respectively. All the patients positive for chlamydiae and/or ureaplasmas received 1200 mg/die of miocamycin for 12 days; a microbiological examination was performed 5 days from the end of the therapy. The therapy with miocamycin caused the resolution of both symptoms and microorganisms present. The use of miocamycin in current therapy could be favourable.

Ciclopiroxolamine's action has been evaluated in 20 cases of dermatophytosis. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for the strains was determined in vitro before treatment (To), after the 4th day (T4), and after the 7th day (T7) of treatment, in relation with the drug's fungicide effect. No significant variation was observed among the MIC values. By comparing the MIC of T4 versus the MIC of To a 0.93 coefficient of linear correlation was obtained while in comparing T7 versus T4 the coefficient was equivalent to 1.0. After 7 days of treatment 5 patients clinically recovered, 11 improved and 4 showed no improvement. Drug tolerance was excellent except for one case.
