The usual adult oral dosage for Anaerobic Bacterial Infections is 7.5 mg per 2.2 pounds of body weight every 6 hours. The usual dosage for Acute Amebic Dysentery is 750 mg taken by mouth 3 times daily for 5 to 10 days. Trichomoniasis requires one-day treatment-two grams of Metronidazole, given either as a single dose or in two divided doses of one gram each given in the same day. The dosage should be individualized. Single-dose treatment can assure compliance, especially if administered under supervision, in those patients who cannot be relied on to continue the seven-day regimen.
