Trichomoniasis Treatment
Treatment with antibiotics is used to cure the infection. Metronidazole is commonly used. It is important to avoid drinking alcohol throughout the course of treatment and for 48 hours after antibiotics are completed. Use of alcohol with metronidazole can cause severe nausea and vomiting. Avoid intercourse until treatment has been completed.
Sexual partners should be considered infected and should be treated at the same time, even if they have no symptoms.
