Tinidazole lozenges

Function and Efficacy

Pharmacological action: The bactericidal mechanism of metronidazole is not very clear. It may be that its nitro group is reduced to a cytotoxic substance, which acts on the DNA metabolism of bacteria to kill them. Metronidazole is active against protozoa such as Trichomonas vaginalis, Entamoeba histolytica and Giardia lamblia; it also has antibacterial effects on anaerobic bacteria (including Bacteroides and other fusobacteria), Peptococcus, Peptostreptococcus, Clostridium, etc. Aerobic bacteria and facultative aerobic bacteria such as Arachnida, Propionibacterium and Actinomycetes are resistant to metronidazole. Animal experiments in toxicological studies have shown that metronidazole has the potential to cause cancer and teratogenesis.
