Secnidazole

An anti-infective of the 5-nitroimidazole family, structurally a methyl-metronidazole, active against anaerobic bacteria and protozoa: in the United States it was approved in 2017 for bacterial vaginosis. This family brings together the active ingredient and other impurities.

Did you know?Its half-life is about 17 hours, twice that of metronidazole, from which it differs by a single methyl group: this is why its action lasts longer.
