What is Nuvessa and what is it used for?
Nuvessa is an FDA-approved prescription vaginal gel containing the antibiotic metronidazole. It is specifically approved to treat bacterial vaginosis (BV), an imbalance of vaginal bacteria. Risk factors for BV can include douching, which disrupts the vagina's natural pH. It is important to note that Nuvessa is not effective against yeast infections. The treatment is a single-dose gel applied vaginally at bedtime, unless a doctor provides different instructions. This medication should be kept securely out of children's reach.
