A member asked:
I'm resistant to metro and took 1g 5days of tinidazole for bv it didn't work, is it because both antibiotics are similar?

Possibly: Metronidazole and tinidazole have basically the same spectrum of antibacterial activity.

Get rechecked: Should help. Sometimes Bacterial vaginosis is difficult to treat. Other antibiotics or repeat testing can be done by your doctor to ensure the best treatment.
