Of 418 subjects in the miconazole nitrate, zinc oxide and white petrolatum ointment group, 58 (14%) reported one or more adverse events. Of 417 subjects in the zinc oxide/white petrolatum control group, 85 (20%) reported one or more adverse events.

The mechanism of action of white petrolatum and zinc oxide for the adjunctive treatment of diaper dermatitis is unknown.. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics The human pharmacodynamics of miconazole nitrate, zinc oxide and white petrolatum ointment is unknown [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.4) for fungal pharmacodynamics].. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics The topical absorption of miconazole from miconazole nitrate, zinc oxide and white petrolatum ointment was studied in immunocompetent male and female infants and children (n 17) with diaper dermatitis complicated by documented candidiasis (microscopic evidence of pseudohyphae and/or budding yeast) ranging in age from month to 21 months. After multiple daily applications to the affected area at every diaper change (approximately 5-12 times per day) for days, the plasma concentrations of miconazole were below the lower limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.5 ng/mL in 15 out of 17 (88%) subjects. In the other remaining subjects, the plasma concentrations of miconazole were 0.57 and 0.58 ng/mL, respectively at single timepoint (4 hours after the last application) on Day 7.. 12.4 Microbiology The miconazole nitrate component in this product has been shown to have in vitro activity against Candida albicans, an organism that is associated with diaper dermatitis. The activity of miconazole nitrate against C. albicans is based on the inhibition of the ergosterol biosynthesis in the cell membrane. The accumulation of ergosterol precursors and toxic peroxides results in cytolysis of the cell. In vitro minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) test results for C. albicans isolates obtained from treatment failures in Clinical Study [see Clinical Studies (14)] does not appear to indicate that resistance to miconazole nitrate was the reason for treatment failure. The clinical significance of the in vitro activity of miconazole nitrate against C. albicans in the setting of diaper dermatitis is unclear.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.
14 CLINICAL STUDIES Study was double-blind, multicenter study in which miconazole nitrate, zinc oxide and white petrolatum ointment was compared to the zinc oxide and white petrolatum combination treatment and included 236 infants and toddlers with diaper dermatitis, complicated by candidiasis as documented by KOH tests that demonstrated pseudohyphae and/or budding yeasts. Study medication was applied at every diaper change for days.The primary endpoint was Overall Cure and required that subjects be both clinically cured (total resolution of all signs and symptoms of infection) and microbiologically cured (eradication of candidiasis). Primary efficacy was assessed week following the end of treatment, at Day 14.Study results are shown in the following table.Overall Cure at Day 14 Miconazole Nitrate, Zinc Oxide and White Petrolatum Ointmentn 112Zinc Oxide/White Petrolatumn 124 26 (23%) 12 (10%)Two additional studies provided supportive evidence of the clinical efficacy of miconazole nitrate, zinc oxide and white petrolatum ointment in infants and toddlers with diaper dermatitis, some of whom cultured positive for C. albicans. However, candidal infection was not documented in the culture-positive subjects, as microscopic testing (e.g. KOH) was not done. Therefore, the positive culture results may have reflected colonization rather than infection.

In animal reproduction studies, prolonged gestation, increased number of resorptions, and decreased numbers of live young were observed after oral administration of miconazole nitrate during organogenesis to pregnant rats and rabbits. No comparisons of animal exposure with human exposure may be calculated due to minimal systemic exposure in humans after topical administration of miconazole nitrate, zinc oxide and white petrolatum ointment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Data.
