Different conditions: Flagyl given four at a time is for treatment of trichomonas infection of the vagina. Bacterial vaginosis treatment requires a more prolonged treatment regimen of 7-10 days given two times per day. This works better if taken 12 hours apart rather than together based on the way Flagyl is metabolized in the body.
