Summary

This will be a multi-visit study that will take approximately 3 hours in total. Up to 200 subjects from the BUMC Valley Fever and BUMC Dermatology clinics will be enrolled in this study and assigned to one of three cohorts according to timeline of oral anti-fungal therapy. Subjects in Cohort 1 will be randomized to apply topical cholesterol-containing moisturizers to the skin, hair and lips on either the right or left side of the body daily. Measurements of skin barrier function, appearance of skin and hair, and hair samples will be obtained at baseline and at 4 week follow-up visits. Cohorts 2 and 3 will be observational groups at differing points in oral antifungal treatment regimen. Subjects will be randomized to have measurements of skin barrier function and hair and skin characteristics obtained from either the right or left side of the body at baseline and at monthly follow-up visits.
