Toxicogenetic evaluation of metronidazole in the treatment of women infected with Trichomonas vaginalis

Samples of peripheral blood were collected once from non-smoking women who were healthy (controls) and twice (immediately before and immediately after 7 days of treatment with metronidazole at 500 mg/day) from non-smoking women infected with Trichomonas vaginalis. Lymphocyte cultures were prepared a...

The differences seen between the results for the controls and those for the infected women, before and after MTZ treatment, may be attributed to the presence of the parasite, to the treatment itself, and/or to variation in the host's response to infection with T. vaginalis.
