Metrotab 200mg Tablets

What is Metrotab 200mg? Metrotab 200mg is a widely used antibiotic and antiprotozoal medication in Nigeria. It contains Metronidazole, which belongs to the nitroimidazole class of anti-infective agents. This medicine is specifically formulated to fight infections caused by anaerobic bacteria and certain parasites. Metrotab is manufactured locally by SKG-Pharma Limited in Ikeja, Lagos, ensuring high quality for the Nigerian market. What is Metrotab Used For? In Nigeria, doctors and pharmacists frequently prescribe Metrotab 200 for several conditions:

"Toilet Infection" (Trichomoniasis): It is highly effective against reproductive system infections often locally called "toilet infection." It helps clear the infection and associated discomfort. Amoebiasis and Giardiasis: Treatment for stomach-related parasitic infections that cause diarrhea, dysentery, or "stomach upset." Dental Infections: Used for fast relief from dental abscesses and gum infections (gingivitis). Post-Surgery: To prevent infections after abdominal or gynecological surgeries.

How Metrotab Works Metrotab works by disrupting the DNA of microbial cells, effectively killing the bacteria or parasites causing the infection. It is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, reaching the site of infection to provide "sharp" relief. How to Take Metrotab 200 For best results, take Metrotab tablets with or after food to avoid stomach upset. Ensure you complete the full course as prescribed by your doctor or chemist, even if you start feeling better. Important Safety Warning: Alcohol You must not drink alcohol while taking Metrotab 200 and for at least 48 hours after your last dose. Combining Metronidazole with alcohol can cause a severe reaction, including nausea, vomiting, and sharp stomach pain. Storage and Handling Store Metrotab 200mg below 25°C in a dry place.
