Metrogyl ER 600 15 tab

Metrogyl ER 600 from JB Chemicals is an extended-release tablet of metronidazole. The slow-release design helps maintain a steady level of medicine through the day.

• Treats certain bacterial and parasitic infections
• Often chosen for longer-acting once-a-day convenience

Metronidazole damages the DNA inside germs that don't need oxygen to live, so they can't grow or multiply. The extended-release format releases the medicine gradually for smoother coverage.

Swallow whole with water as prescribed by your doctor. Don't break, crush, or chew. Complete the full course even if you feel better.

• Nausea, metallic taste, mild stomach upset
• Headache or darker urine in some people

Avoid alcohol during the course and for 48 hours after. Inform your doctor if you have liver problems, are pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Store below 25C in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
