Abstract

The invention relates to a process for production of tampons containing novel formulations of antimycotic azole derivatives which provide a higher release of active compounds and make short-term therapy possible. The tampon formulations of the invention contain active antimycotic azole derivatives in impregnated form, only melting at body temperature, or dissolved form, such as, for example, in suppository bases or their combinations with emulsifiers and/or spreading agents and/or solubilisers.
