Abstract

Background: Bacterial vaginosis is one of the most common infections in women at reproductive age. Although metronidazole is recommended as the first-line TREATMENT, it has various side effects which make it difficult for patients to continue the TREATMENT. Thus, the need is felt for finding a medication with fewer side effects. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of MICOSIN VAGINAL CREAM (made of GARLIC) and METRONIDAZOLE VAGINAL GEL on TREATMENT of patients with bacterial vaginosis.Materials and Methods: This study was a clinical trial which was conducted on 100 married women, aged 18-44, whose infection with bacterial vaginosis was diagnosed through clinical Amsel criteria. The participants were randomly divided into two groups of 50 persons each: MICOSIN VAGINAL CREAM and METRONIDAZOLE VAGINAL GEL. Patients identified with tricamona or candidiadis infections were excluded from the study. TREATMENT period in each group lasted for seven days. Clinical Amsel criteria and patient complaints were again checked 2 to 7 days after completion of the TREATMENT period, and the side-effects were registered.Results: Following the TREATMENT with MICOSIN VAGINAL CREAM and METRONIDAZOLE VAGINAL GEL, patient complaints and clinical Amsel criteria showed a significant decrease (p<0.05), in a way that clinical recovery rates in micosin and metronidazole groups were 80% and 70%, respectively. Conclusion: MICOSIN VAGINAL CREAM seems to be an appropriate alternative for METRONIDAZOLE VAGINAL GEL in TREATMENT of bacterial vaginosis.
