Indications

Antimicrobial and immunomodulatory agent. Drug product of choice against Giardia app. infections in puppies. Useful when diarrhea and flatulence caused by bacterial microorganisms sensitive to the formula occur. It is also recommended in case of short bowel syndrome, anaerobic infections of the oral cavity, hepatic encephalopathy, cholangitis and inflammatory bowel disease.

Metronidazole is a synthetic nitroimidazole-derivative that was introduced into therapeutics in 1959 for the treatment of infections caused by Trichomonas vaginalis in humans. However, other advantages were found, such as its activity against anaerobic germs and many other protozoa.
