Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). Metronidazole extended-release 750 mg tablets are indicated in the treatment of BV in non-pregnant women. To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of metronidazole extended-release tablets and other antibacterial drugs, metronidazole extended-release tablets should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
