Comparing the Efficacy of Metronidazole & Minocycline Gels for

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This clinical study randomized 380 diabetic chronic periodontitis patients into 4 groups: scaling and root planning alone (group I), scaling and root planning plus metronidazole gel (group II), scaling and root planning plus minocycline gel (group III), and scaling and root planning plus both metronidazole and minocycline gels (group IV). Periodontal measurements including probing depth, gingival color and texture, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment level, and recession were recorded at baseline, 7 days, and 15 days.

Clinical Trial Description

It was a clinical trial with four arms. The research was carried out at the Pharmacology Department, IIMC Riphah University, Rawalpindi. The sample size was calculated to be 380 using the prevalence of disease, z-score, and 5% margin of error. Written informed consent was obtained from the participants. The patients being treated for chronic periodontitis were randomly divided into four groups (I, II, III, and IV). Patients in Group I were subjected to Scaling and root planning alone. Group II patients were given metronidazole gel following Scaling and root planning. Minocycline gel was locally applied subsequent to scaling and root planning in Group III patients. The combination of metronidazole gel and minocycline gel was administered after Scaling and root planning in Group IV patients. Scaling and root planning of all the patients was done. Periodontal probing depth, the color of the gingiva, texture of the gingiva, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment level, and recession were recorded for each patient at baseline visit, after 7 days, and after 15 days to determine and compare the efficacy of local administration of drugs. ;
