Indications & Clinical Uses

Metronidazole Remedica is a nitroimidazole antibiotic used to treat infections caused by anaerobic bacteria and susceptible protozoa.

  • Bacterial vaginosis: reduces overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria and alleviates symptoms.
  • Trichomoniasis: eliminates Trichomonas vaginalis, relieving infection signs.
  • Amoebiasis: eradicates Entamoeba histolytica causing intestinal disease.
  • Anaerobic bacterial infections: targets a broad range of anaerobes in intra‑abdominal, skin and oral sites.
  • Clostridioides difficile infection: helps control toxin‑producing strains in selected cases.

How It Works

  • Metronidazole enters anaerobic microorganisms and is reduced by intracellular electron transport proteins, generating nitro radicals. These free radicals damage DNA and inhibit nucleic acid synthesis, leading to cell death of susceptible bacteria and protozoa while sparing aerobic cells.

Side Effects

Metronidazole may cause a range of adverse reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Nausea
  • Metallic taste
  • Diarrhea
  • Abdominal pain

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Seizures
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis)

Precautions & Warnings

Before prescribing Metronidazole Remedica, consider the following precautions.

  • Renal function assessment: adjust use in severe renal impairment.
  • Hepatic monitoring: observe liver enzymes during prolonged therapy.
  • Alcohol avoidance: prevent disulfiram‑like reaction.
  • Pregnancy considerations: use only if benefits outweigh potential risks.
  • Elderly patients: monitor for increased toxicity.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in original packaging, protect from moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Metronidazole Remedica can interact with several medicines.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Alcohol: may cause severe flushing and vomiting.
  • Warfarin: potentiates anticoagulant effect, increasing bleeding risk.
  • Lithium: may raise lithium serum concentrations.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Cimetidine: can increase metronidazole plasma levels.
  • Phenytoin: may reduce metronidazole efficacy.
  • Carbamazepine: may lower metronidazole concentrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Metronidazole Remedica is a prescription oral antibiotic indicated for bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis, amoebiasis, anaerobic bacterial infections and selected cases of Clostridioides difficile infection. It targets susceptible anaerobic bacteria and protozoa to eradicate the infection.

Metronidazole is reduced inside anaerobic microorganisms, forming nitro radicals that damage DNA and block nucleic acid synthesis. This selective toxicity leads to cell death of the targeted bacteria and protozoa while sparing most aerobic cells.

The dosage is set by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the type and severity of infection, patient age, weight, renal and hepatic function, and any concomitant therapies. Specific regimens are not disclosed here.

Metronidazole’s pregnancy category is not definitively established. It should be used only when the potential benefit justifies any possible risk to the fetus. Limited data are available for breastfeeding; a clinician should evaluate the risk‑benefit balance before use.

Submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any required import documentation.

Metronidazole is a nitroimidazole similar to tinidazole. Both share a comparable spectrum against anaerobes and protozoa, but tinidazole often has a longer half‑life, allowing once‑daily dosing. Choice depends on clinical guidelines, patient tolerance, drug‑interaction profile and local resistance patterns.

Store the product at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C. Keep it in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight. Do not freeze. Follow any additional instructions on the label.

Metronidazole Remedica is taken orally, usually as a whole tablet with or without food, as directed by the prescriber. Swallow the tablet whole; do not crush or chew unless specifically advised.

Serious adverse events include seizures, peripheral neuropathy and severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis or Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience neurological symptoms, rash, or signs of an allergic reaction.

Individuals with a known hypersensitivity to metronidazole or other nitroimidazoles should avoid the drug. It is also contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment and should be used with caution in those who consume alcohol or have a history of seizures.
