Scientific Evidence

Additional Information

Zalain ovuli provides targeted treatment directly to the site of infection, resulting in faster symptom relief compared to oral medications. It is well-tolerated with minimal side effects, making it a convenient option for women with vaginal yeast infections.

Pharmacological Effects: Sertaconazole exerts its antifungal activity by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes. This disruption leads to fungal cell death, effectively treating the infection.

Clinical Trials: Clinical trials have shown that Zalain ovuli is as effective as other antifungal treatments in resolving vaginal yeast infections. A study published in the European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology demonstrated the high efficacy and safety profile of sertaconazole in the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis.
