Not effectively: Trichomonas vaginalis is treated with flagyl/metronidazole or tinidazole.  Amoxicillin is not effective.

Question 2

can cefprozil be used to treat trichomoniasis ?

Accepted Answer

Trichomonas: Trichomonas is best treated with Flagyl, in varying dose schedules.  Having unprotected sex with more than one partner can create a "new infection" , since all partners of an individual (male or female) have trichomonas in general if one of the partners ( or their "other" partners) have it.  All contacts should be treated simultaneously for effective eradication of the infection.

No: A short course of Metronidazole or tinidazole is the standard treatment.

Question 8

can trichomoniasis be treated w/o a dr. office visit?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Trichomoniasis can be treated without a doctor&#x27;s office visit, but it usually requires an office visit to make the diagnosis.  Trichomoniasis is diagnosed by seeing the parasite under a microscope. If you know for sure that you have had sexual contact with someone who had trichomoniasis and you have symptoms, some doctors would treat you without a visit.  Try a doctor on HealthTap.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

No: Fluorinated quinolones like Moxifloxacin do not generally have activity against protozoans like trichomonas.  Metronidazole is usually the therapy of choice.

Question 10

i have trichomoniasis , i am being treated but will washing my clothes be enough to not get reinfected?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Trichomonas is transmitted from one warm place to another sexually and the protozoan organism doesn't survive well on clothing unless moist. Re-infection is more likely when you have intercourse again with an untreated partner.
