Flagyl 400mg: Dosage Regimen for Bacterial Vaginosis and Trichomoniasis

For bacterial vaginosis, take one 400mg tablet twice daily for seven days. This regimen effectively targets the bacteria causing the infection.

Trichomoniasis treatment involves a single 2g dose (five 400mg tablets) taken at once. This high-dose approach ensures complete eradication of the parasite.

Always follow your doctor’s instructions. The dosage may vary depending on individual needs and severity of the infection. Do not stop taking the medication prematurely, even if symptoms improve. Complete the full course of treatment.

During treatment, abstain from sexual intercourse to prevent reinfection and protect your partner. Inform your sexual partner(s) about your infection so they can also receive treatment.

Report any side effects to your doctor immediately. Common side effects can include nausea, diarrhea, and metallic taste in the mouth. Severe reactions are rare.
