Rectal fluconazole for tinea capitis.

Jeffrey M Pernica1, Natalie Dayneka, Charles Ps Hui.   

Abstract

The present report describes a case of tinea capitis in a boy with autistic spectrum disorder and an aversion to oral medications. He refused weekly oral fluconazole and there was a poor response to daily rectal griseofulvin. He tolerated once-weekly rectal fluconazole (10 mg/kg) well and there was an excellent clinical outcome.
