    AbstractPregnancy creates conditions which favour the development and persistence of candidiasis (moniliasis). The resultant vaginitis is often refractory to treatment. A new fungicidal antibiotic, pimaricine (Pimafucine), was studied in 91 women with vaginal moniliasis, all of whom were pregnant. Fifty-six (63%) were cured on the basis of negative cultures and 28 became symptomfree in spite of positive cultures. In this series, 94.3% benefited from treatment.
