Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Newton Score at 14 days

    Clinical assessment of buccal lesions localized at hard palate. The score utilized to measure the intensity of lesions will be Newton classification (I - punctate in the palate; II - extensive smooth reddened appearance; III -extensive reddening with hyperplastic growth) and the outcome will be the reduction of Newton's score comparing day 1 with day 14.

    Day 14

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Assessment of gel acceptability

    Day 7

  • Assessment of adverse events

    Day 7 and 14

  • Anti fungal activity

    Day 1 and 14

Study Arms (2)

Propolis

Standardized-propolis extract (EPP-AF®) oral gel formulation, 3 times a day, for 14 days

Other: Propolis

Miconazole

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Miconazole 20mg/g oral gel,3 times a day, for 14 days

Drug: Miconazole

Interventions

Propolis
Also known as: Daktarin oral gel
