FAQ about Generic Flagyl
How does Metronidazole work?
Metronidazle is selectively toxic to anaerobic organisms. Metronidazole selectively blocks DNA and other critical biomolecules within the bacterial cells and the parasites resulting in their death.
Side effects of Flagyl
Metronidazole is generally well tolerated with appropriate use. The minor side effects include nausea, headaches, loss of appetite, a metallic taste, and rash. The serious side effects include seizures and damage of nerves resulting in numbness and tingling of extremities (peripheral neuropathy).
Guidelines before using Metronidazole
The dose of Metronidazole needs to be reduced in patients with liver disease and abnormal liver function. Alcohol should be avoided with metronidazole as it can cause severe nausea, vomiting, cramps, flushing, and headache. Metronidazole can increase the blood thinning effects of warfarin and increase the risk of bleeding by reducing the break down of warfarin. Cimetidine increases blood levels of Metronidazole and cholestyramine reduces blood levels of Metronidazole by reducing its absorption. The use of Metronidazole is contraindicated with retroviral drug, amprenavir as amprenavir contains propylene glycol. Metronidazole blocks the breakdown of propylene glycol in the liver leading to accumulation of propylene glycol in blood. Accumulation of propylene glycol can cause seizures, increased heart rate, and kidney failure. Metronidazole is not used in early pregnancy.
What are the common dosages of Flagyl?
The usual dose of Flagyl for the treatment of amebic dysentery is 750 mg orally 3 times daily for 5-10 days. The recommended dose of Flagyl for the treatment of amebic liver abscess is 500-750 mg orally three times daily for 5-10 days. The dose regimen of Metronidazole for the treatment of anaerobic infections is 7.5 mg/kg orally every 6 hours and it should not exceed 4 grams daily. The dose of Metronidazole for clostridium difficile infection is 250-500 mg orally 4 times daily or 500-750 orally 3 times daily.
