This study was performed with aim to compare the effect of Salvia officinalis vaginal cream with clotrimazole vaginal cream on treatment of Candida vaginitis in diabetic women. Methods: This randomized clinical trial study was performed on 68 patients with vaginal candidiasis in Mashhad in 2018-2019. 34 patients were placed in Salvia officinalis and 34 in clotrimazole group. Vulvovaginal candidiasis was diagnosed by clinical symptoms and wet test, and culture in Sabrouraud dextrose agar. Vaginal Salvia officinalis cream and the Vaginal Cream Clotrimazole were administered one applicator every night for 7 nights. Follow-up was done 1 ± 7 days later.

Data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 21), and independent t-test, Chi-square, Mann-Whitney, McNemar and Wilcoxon tests. P<0. 05 was considered statistically significant. Results: There was statistically significant difference in Salvia officinalis discharge in the salvia group compared to clotrimazole group (p <0. 001). Whereas the other improving symptoms such as irritation of the vulva (P = 0. 0317), itching (P = 0. 093), burning (P = 0. 383), post-couital pain (P = 0. 067) were not significantly different between two groups.
