Composition

Metronidazole (2 %) + Mupirocin (2 %)

Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm is used to treat and soothe infected skin conditions such as impetigo, infected wounds and ulcers, and the inflamed spots of rosacea.

It combines metronidazole, which acts against bacteria and calms inflammation, with another topical antibacterial, so together they clear the infection and reduce inflammation.

Apply a thin layer to the affected skin as directed, usually after gently cleaning the area.

Tell your doctor about any skin conditions before use. Report marked irritation, an allergic rash, or a spreading infection.

Here's how you should apply Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm:

Ensure that the skin area needing treatment is cleaned and dried before application.
Apply a thin layer of the ointment to the affected area as directed by your doctor.
You may choose to cover the treated area with sterile gauze if necessary.

Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm may cause some side effects that are usually mild and go away as your body adjusts to the medicine.

A few common side effects of Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm:

Application Site: A burning feeling, irritation, redness or dryness where it is applied.
Skin: Contact dermatitis, stinging or itching in some people.

If side effects do not improve or become serious, speak to your doctor right away.

Management Of Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which are resolved by discontinuing the use of Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Application site reactions: Try applying a thinner layer of Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm if you experience burning, irritation, or redness at the application site.

Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm is a combination medication that contains two active ingredients:

Metronidazole (2% w/w): This antibiotic penetrates bacterial cells and damages their DNA, causing cell death. It's particularly effective against anaerobic bacteria.
Mupirocin (2% w/w): This topical antibiotic binds reversibly to a specific enzyme in bacteria called isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, thereby inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. At concentrations achieved through topical application, mupirocin is effectively bactericidal.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while applying Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Exercise caution when applying Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm if you are a nursing mother. Make sure to discuss this with your doctor.

Alcohol

As Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm is a topical medication, interactions with alcohol are rare and not usually relevant. However, always be sure to discuss any concerns with your doctor.

Liver

Liver health issues are typically not a concern with topical medications like Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm. However, it's always wise to share any liver-related concerns with your doctor.

Kidney

The use of topical medicines such as Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm generally does not affect kidney health. Still, if you have kidney health issues, it's recommended that you discuss them with your doctor.

Use In Driving And Operating Machinery

Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm is unlikely to affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. But if you experience any side effects that might impair these abilities, contact your doctor.

Allergy

If you're known to be allergic to metronidazole, mupirocin, or any other ingredients in Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm, avoid using this medicine. In case of an allergic reaction, seek medical help immediately.

Children

The safety and effectiveness of Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm in children below 2 months of age have not been established. Always consult your doctor before applying this medicine to children.

Older Patients

Older patients can use Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm as per their doctor's recommendation. However, they should be aware that they may be more susceptible to side effects and should therefore use the medicine under medical supervision.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm interacts with the following medicines:

Other Topical Medications: Applying Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm concurrently with other topical medicines like tretinoin may lead to increased skin irritation and dryness.
Corticosteroids: The use of systemic corticosteroids such as prednisone or dexamethasone along with Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm may increase the risk of side effects, such as skin thinning.
Antifungals: Topical antifungals like ketoconazole may interact with Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm, potentially leading to altered medication effects.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm interacts with the following diseases:

Allergies: If you have a known hypersensitivity to metronidazole or mupirocin, both active ingredients in Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm, using this ointment could trigger an allergic reaction.

Daily Dose

Your doctor will prescribe the recommended dose of Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm depending on the severity of your condition and how you respond to the medication. Always follow your doctor's instructions and avoid exceeding your prescribed dosage without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

In case you accidentally apply too much Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm, you might experience common side effects like skin irritation or rash. If these symptoms persist or worsen, inform your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you forget to apply Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm at the scheduled time, do so as soon as you remember. However, if it's almost time for your next application, skip the missed one and resume your regular schedule. Do not increase your dosage without consulting your doctor.

Store Metrogyl M Ointment 15gm at a temperature below 25°C.
Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Make sure that the tube is tightly closed after each use.
