Metvin 200 Mg Tablet

What is Metvin 200 mg

Metvin 200 mg includes Metronidazole, an oral antibiotic from a class of medicines called nitroimidazole antimicrobials. It is effective against bacterial and parasitic infections. It cures Bacterial Vaginosis, Trichomoniasis, Amoebiasis, Giardiasis, and anaerobic bacterial infections of the stomach, skin, joints, and respiratory system. This Metronidazole tablet suppresses bacterial DNA synthesis, which prevents the disease from spreading.

Do not use this antibacterial therapy if you have a history of allergic reactions to Metronidazole or nitroimidazoles. Long-term usage may lead to nerve damage or Neuropathy. Metvin may interact with blood thinners like Warfarin, lithium, Disulfiram, Cimetidine, and seizure medications such as Phenytoin or Phenobarbital, reducing their efficacy or raising side effects. 

Continuous usage of Disulfiram can cause acute psychotic symptoms. It may also increase the impact of Cyclosporine and Busulfan, necessitating cautious monitoring. Do not discontinue treatment prematurely, even if symptoms improve, as this may result in antibiotic resistance. Before starting Metvin, always contact your healthcare practitioner about existing medical conditions or medications.

What are the benefits of Metvin 200 mg

Metvin contains Metronidazole, an antibiotic effective against anaerobic bacteria and some parasites. It is a prodrug, which means it is only active after being digested in the body. Once inside susceptible organisms, Metronidazole is reduced by particular electron transport proteins, creating reactive metabolites. 

These compounds interact with the bacteria's DNA, causing strand breakage and limiting nucleic acid synthesis, resulting in cell death. Metvin is often used to treat Bacterial Vaginosis, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, and gastrointestinal infections caused by anaerobic bacteria.
