Abstract

Background: Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nails, which manifested as nail discoloration, thickening, and detachment from the nail bed. It is not life-threatening, however inappropriate treatment of onychomycosis might lead to complications and affect the patient’s quality of life; making the management of the disease a challenge for clinicians. Objective: Investigate the efficacy of pulse-dosed oral terbinafine combined with topical 8% ciclopirox olamine to treat onychomycosis. Methods: Literature search was performed in Pubmed and Cochrane databases using the keywords 'combination' AND 'oral terbinafine' AND 'ciclopirox' AND ‘onychomycosis treatment’ along with their synonyms and related terms. Results and Discussion: After critical appraisal, studies by Avner et al. and Jaiswal et al. found to be valid, important, and applicable to the patient. The first study found that oral terbinafine combined with topical 8% ciclopirox olamine is more effective and safe compared to terbinafine as a monotherapy (p<0.05). The second study found similar results, but without statistical significance (p>0.05). Conclusions: Oral terbinafine combined with topical 8% ciclopirox olamine is more effective than monotherapy, despite statistical irrelevance in one of the studies appraised. Further studies are needed to support the implementation of combination therapy.

Abstract

Background: Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is a benign infection caused by the Molluscipox virus that most often affects children and sexually active adolescents. Various topical therapeutic options are available, however, no single intervention is convincingly effective. Potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution is widely used but its usefulness is hampered with adverse effects. Newer preparation, 5% imiquimod cream seems to be as, if not more, effective. However, it is not legally available yet in Indonesia. Aim: To assess the efficacy and safety of 5% imiquimod cream in treating adult molluscum contagiosum. Methods: Literature search was done through Pubmed, EBSCO, dan Cochrane databases. Inclusion criteria included articles in English, available in free full text and matched with the clinical question as well as providing the clinical outcome of papules clearance within 12 weeks. Results: There were three articles found to be related to the clinical question and they were critically appraised for their validity, importance, and applicability. Conclusion: Only two studies were valid and further assessed for their importance and applicability. In regards to importance, imiquimod has fewer side effects than KOH, yet it was not constantly shown to be superior to KOH in curing MC lesions. We conclude that KOH solution is the preferred treatment of MC in adults.
