Brand Name: Fasigyn

Generic Name: Tinidazole

How does it work?

Tinidazole belongs to a group of antibiotics called the azoles. It works by entering the cell and binding to genetic material (DNA). This prevents the formation of further genetic material and therefore stops the bacteria from reproducing.

Tinidazole is an antibiotic specifically used to stop the spread of infections which do not require oxygen to grow. These sorts of microorganisms commonly infect the gut, bones, brain and lungs.

What is it used for?

• Amoebic infection of the liver
• Bacteria of the gut that can cause ulcers (Helicobacter pylori)
• Infection that is caused by bacteria that grow without the need for oxygen (anaerobic bacteria)
• Inflammation of the vagina that results from infection (vaginitis)
• Painful inflammation and ulcers of the gums (ulcerative gingivitis)
• Parasitic gut infection caused by the protozoa Giardia lamblia (giardiasis)
• Prevention of infection (usually after surgery)
• Protozoal infection of the urinary organs or genitals (urogenital trichomoniasis)
• Sudden severe diarrhoea due to infection caused by the amoeba Entamoeba histolytica (acute amoebic dysentry)
