Metronidazole, commonly known by the brand name Flagyl, is an antibiotic and antiprotozoal medication used to treat a variety of bacterial and parasitic infections. Each package contains 30 tablets of metronidazole.

Key Features:

  • Broad-spectrum antibiotic: Metronidazole is effective against a wide range of bacteria and protozoa, making it a versatile choice for treating various infections.

Usage Instructions:

  • Dosage and duration of treatment with Metronidazole depend on the type and severity of the infection, as well as individual patient response. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
  • For most infections, the typical dosage for adults is 500mg orally every 8 hours for 7 to 10 days.
  • Metronidazole should be taken with a full glass of water, with or without food, to minimize the risk of stomach upset.
  • Complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished, unless otherwise directed by your healthcare provider.

Precautions:

  • Inform your healthcare provider about any pre-existing medical conditions or ongoing medications before starting Metronidazole.
  • Avoid consuming alcohol or products containing alcohol while taking Metronidazole and for at least 3 days after treatment, as it may cause a severe reaction including nausea, vomiting, flushing, or headache.
  • Use caution if you have a history of liver disease, as Metronidazole may exacerbate liver function abnormalities.

  • Nausea
  • Headache
  • Metallic taste in the mouth
  • Loss of appetite
  • Diarrhea or constipation
  • Vaginal discharge or itching (in women)

If any of these side effects persist or worsen, inform your healthcare provider promptly.
