- Abstract
The article discusses connubial contact dermatitis from nifuratel. A 38-year-old male developed a severe eczema of the genital region, which spread to the abdomen and upper thighs. It was aggravated by sexual intercourse. Problems with sexual intercourse had begun 2 months before, when his wife had been afflicted by a troublesome vulvovaginitis, which had been treated with several courses of Macmiror Complex ointment. Nifuratel is an antiseptic used as an antimycotic and antitrichomonas agent alone or with nystatin. In this case, either the sensitizing contact with the allergen or the subsequent eliciting exposure occurred.
