Ornidazole is an antibiotic used to treat protozoan infections.[1]^:1368 A synthetic nitroimidazole, it is commercially obtained from an acid-catalyzed reaction between 2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole and epichlorohydrin.[2] Antimicrobial spectrum is similar to that of metronidazole and is more well tolerated[1]^:1368; however there are concerns of lower relative efficacy.[3]

It was first introduced for treating trichomoniasis before being recognized for its broad anti-protozoan and anti-anaerobic-bacterial capacities.[4]^:1261 has also been investigated for use in Crohn's disease after bowel resection.[5]
