Some studies suggest that certain probiotic strains or vitamin B complex could enhance the treatment effects of antifungal drugs.[1]
A number of other topical or suppository supplements have also been studied alone or in combination with antifungal treatments, including yogurt, honey, boric acid, ginger, and curcumin. Though some treatments were more effective than placebo and appeared comparable to antifungal treatments, many of the trials have considerable limitations.
