Introduction: Opportunistic fungal infection by Candida sp,. in the world continues to grow every year. Candida albicans is the fungus with the highest candidiasis infection rate. The use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and urinary catheters for a long time have caused most of the standard drugs such as fluconazole to become resistant to candidiasis. Propolis turns out to have bioactive compounds that can inhibit the growth of Candida albicans. Lombok propolis has active phenolic compounds such as flavonoids which act as antifungals. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of Lombok propolis with fluconazole, and to compare the well diffusion method with micro broth dilution. Method: This in vitro study used an experimental research design, namely the well diffusion and microbroth dilution methods. The treatment was divided into a positive control group: fluconazole, a negative control group: DMSO, and three groups of propolis with levels of 50mg/mL, 70mg/mL, and 100,g/mL. Each procedure was repeated 3 times. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis statistical test and One-Way ANOVA. Result: The provision of propolis in Lombok showed an inhibition zone with an average range of 7.9 mm–10 mm on the agar diffusion method, while the inhibition zone showed an average of 15 mm (p < 0.05). When compared with the microbroth dilution method, similar results were found. Statistical analysis did not find any significant difference between the three concentrations of Lombok propolis (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Lombok propolis has antifungal effect on the growth of Candida albicans based on two methods that have been used, but its effectiveness is still lower than fluconazole."
