Metronidazole is an antibiotic that works against certain bacteria and parasites by inhibiting their DNA synthesis, thus killing them.
Ofloxacin, another antibiotic, prevents bacterial growth by inhibiting their ability to divide and repair themselves, thereby leading to their death.
Simethicone, an anti-foaming agent, reduces gas bubbles in the gut. It does not reduce the production of gas but aids in its easy passage, providing relief from bloating and discomfort.
