  • Title: Treatment of trichomonal vaginitis with single dose tinidazole (Fasigyn).
    Author: Akinla O, Ogunbi O.
    Journal: West Afr J Pharmacol Drug Res; 1975 Jun; 2(1):31-7. PubMed ID: 775789.
    Abstract:
    A new trichomonacidal agent, Tinidazole, (Fasigyn) has been used in a single oral dose of 2 g in 24 patients with very good results. An over-all cure rate of 100% (6 patients) was achieved in in-patients and of 94% 23 out of 24 patients in out-patients. The failures may be attributed to recurrence due to concomitant bacterial infection or to re-infection by a male partner. This regime is therefore strongly recommended as the treatment of choice for Trichomonal vaginalis infection.
