Pharmaceutical composition for treating vaginal candidiasis and method for preparing it

FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: as an active substance, the composition contains butoconazol, a base that is a combination of a hydrophobic ingredient, a hydrophilic ingredient and an emulsifier, and also a gel-forming polymer. Hydroxypropylstarch phosphate is preferentially used as the gel-forming polymer. A method for preparing the declared composition consists in the fact that a mixture of butoconazol with a portion of the hydrophilic ingredient, the hydrophobic ingredient and emulsifier is added with a dispersion of the gel-forming polymer in the rest of the hydrophilic ingredient; the produced mixture is agitated homogenously with a preserving agent added where it might be necessary. EFFECT: new pharmaceutical composition is characterised by a high level of antifungal activity, stability both at a storage temperature, and at a use temperature, and good pack extrusion. 14 cl, 2 tbl, 10 ex
