Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Clinical Cure as Assessed by the Investigator at the Test-of-cure Visit7-14 days after beginning treatment

The percentage of participants with clinical cure in each arm was compared. Clinical cure of bacterial vaginosis is defined as 1. discharge has returned to normal/physiologic, 2. the whiff test is negative for any amine "fishy" odor, 3. the saline wet mount is \<20% clue cells

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Improvement of BV Clue Cells7-14 days after beginning treatment

Clue cells on wet mount were assessed and categorized as absent (\<20%) or present (\>=20%). Absence of clue cells is associated with improvement. The comparison was for percentage between arms for clue cells absent (\<20%).

Microbiologic Improvement/Cure7-14 days after beginning treatment

For bacterial vaginosis (BV), Gram stain Nugent scores are catergized as normal (0 to 3), intermediate (4 to 6) or BV (7 to 10). Normal scores are associated with BV microbiologic cure. The percentage of participants with normal scores were compared between treatments.

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse EventsAny time during study participation (up to 30 days)

Adverse events were collected at study visits, from subject diaries and from spontaneous reports

Number of Participants Reporting Complete Resolution of Symptoms by Test of Cure Visit7-14 days after beginning treatment

Subjects reported if symptoms completely resolved and the date of resolution. The percentage of participants reporting complete resolution of symptoms was compared between arms.
