Metronidazole (AAN, BAN, INN, USAN)  (Flagyl and others) is a nitroimidazole antibiotic

medication used particularly for anaerobicbacteria and protozoa. Metronidazole is an antibacterial

against anaerobic organisms, amoebicide and antiprotozoal. It is the drug of choice for first episodes

of mild-to-moderate Clostridium difficile infection.

It is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines, a list of the most important

medication needed in a basic health system.

other antibacterials like ceftriaxone), pseudomembranous colitis, aspiration pneumonia, rosacea (topical),

fungating wounds (topical), intra-abdominal infections, lung abscess, gingivitis, amoebiasis, giardiasis,

trichomoniasis, and infections caused by susceptible anaerobic organisms such as Bacteroides fragilis,
