Question: can doxycycline hyclate treat trichomoniasis?
Answer: To investigate the effect of drugs other than metronidazole, 3 non-pregnant women infected with Trichomonas vaginalis were treated with doxycycline, 2 x 200 mg/day for 1 week. Another 3 women were treated with praziquantel, single dose, 40 mg/kg body weight. No therapeutic effect was detected for either drug.
