A member asked:
If i'm resistant to metronidazole am i also resistant to secnidazole?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hopefully not: Secnidazole is a newer anti parasitic drug that has been shown to be effective in conditions commonly treated with Metronidazole. That is expected to work for you in case you failed Metronidazole therapy.
