It is more common in hot and humid climates and in people with risk factors such as diabetes, frequent use of antibiotic ear drops, or swimming in polluted water. Standard treatments include antifungal ear drops, but relapses are frequent.\n\nThis study will evaluate the effectiveness of terbinafine hydrochloride cream, an antifungal medication, in treating otomycosis. Terbinafine is known to be active against fungi such as Aspergillus and Candida, which are common causes of ear fungal infections. In this study, patients with otomycosis will have terbinafine hydrochloride cream applied on an ear pack that will be placed in the ear canal and changed every two days for two weeks.\n\nThe main goal of the study is to find out whether terbinafine hydrochloride is effective in reducing symptoms and eradicating the fungal infection. Patients will be examined clinically and ear swabs will be tested before and after treatment. The study will be conducted at Assiut University Hospital and Assiut General Hospital in Egypt, and about 50 patients are expected to participate.",[27,28],"Otomycosis","Fungal Ear Infection",[27,30,31],"Aspergillus","Candida","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2025-09-29",{"date":35,"type":36},"2025-10-01","ACTUAL",{"date":35,"type":21},{"date":39,"type":21},"2026-12-01",{"name":41,"class":42},"Assiut University","OTHER",{"id":44,"slug":45,"hasResults":11,"nctId":46,"briefTitle":47,"officialTitle":47,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":48,"healthyVolunteers":49,"sex":16,"minAge":4,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":50,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":52,"phases":4,"briefSummary":53,"conditions":54,"keywords":55,"overallStatus":57,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":58,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":59,"startDateStruct":61,"completionDateStruct":63,"leadSponsor":65,"locationsCount":67},"100556819","exploring-the-risk-factors-of-otomycosis-a-case-control-study-100556819","NCT06530069","Exploring the Risk Factors of Otomycosis: A Case-Control Study","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Symptoms in the case group include tinnitus, ear fullness or blockage, itching, ear pain, discharge, and hearing loss.
