Flagyl Suspension is taken orally.

Flagyl Suspension works in your body through a specific mechanism:

• Inhibits Nucleic Acid Synthesis: The active ingredient in Flagyl Suspension is Metronidazole which is taken orally. It penetrates bacterial and sensitive protozoal cells and undergoes a chemical reduction process, aided by intracellular electron transport proteins, inside these cells. This reduction process leads to the formation of unstable molecules that bind with DNA, inhibiting nucleic acid synthesis, and ultimately causing cell death.

• Bactericidal Effects: Metronidazole displays concentration-dependent bactericidal effects against anaerobic bacteria in proportion to its concentration within the infected area.

• Anti-protozoal Activity: Besides its antibacterial properties, Metronidazole also exhibits anti-protozoal activity, making it effective against certain parasites and contributing to the overall efficacy of Flagyl Suspension.

• Store Flagyl Suspension at room temperature, ideally between 25°C to 30°C.

• Keep the medicine in a cool, dark and dry place, away from direct sunlight.

• Always keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.

• Ensure the medicine is out of reach of children.

• It's crucial to use the medicine before its expiry date.

• Since Flagyl Suspension is used to manage various infections, keeping a well-balanced diet can help boost your immune system. Include plenty of fruits and vegetables to ensure you get essential vitamins and minerals.

• If your child has been prescribed this medicine, encourage regular hand washing and personal hygiene to prevent further infections.
