Isotinidazole is an antimicrobial agent used primarily in the treatment of trichomoniasis, a parasitic infection caused by Trichomonas vaginalis. It works by inhibiting the DNA synthesis of the parasite, leading to its death and thereby alleviating symptoms of the infection. Isotinidazole is also utilized in the treatment of other protozoal infections, including amoebiasis. Its mechanism of action involves disrupting the DNA structure and replication within the pathogenic organisms.
