A member asked:
I'm allergic to flagyl and just was recently diagnosed with trich my doctor prescribed me doxycycline 100mg 2x a day for 3 weeks will this work?

Try tinidazole: Doxycycline has been tried in some cases of trich that could not be treated effectively with metronidazole (Flagyl), but it isn't known to be effective. Speak with your doctor about tindazole (Tindamax), a newer drug that is highly effective. As the name implies, it is similar to metronidazole, but most allergic patients can take it without problem.
