Abstract

A new substituted nitromidazole, tinidazole, is compared with metronidazole in Trichomonal vaginitis. Tinidazole cured 93.3% cases with no undesirable side effects. Metronidazole cured 83.3% with side effects in 10% of cases. In the recommended dosage tinidazole is comparable to metronidazole in efficacy with additional advantage of better toleration
