A new anti-protozoal compound, ornidazole, a derivative of nitroimidazole, was given in a single 2 g dose to 20 women with Trichomonas vaginalis infection. All the women were cured, but they suffered some side-effects. Plasma levels of ornidazole reached a peak five to eight times higher than minimum inhibitory concentrations and exceeded this level for at least 36 hours. It is therefore possible that a smaller dose might have had an adequate trichomonicidal effect and fewer side-effects. Further studies are in progress.
一种新型抗寄生虫化合物奥硝唑,是硝基咪唑的衍生物,以单次2克剂量给予20名阴道毛滴虫感染的女性。所有女性均被治愈,但出现了一些副作用。奥硝唑的血浆水平达到的峰值比最低抑菌浓度高五至八倍,并至少在36小时内超过该水平。因此,较小剂量可能具有足够的杀滴虫效果且副作用较少。进一步的研究正在进行中。
