Flagyl Gel

Flagyl Gel contains Metronidazole (1%w/w) + Lignocaine (2%w/w) + Chlorhexidine (1%w/w) and is used for this medicine is used. Prescription required.

This medicine is used in the treatment of bacterial infection, gut infection, skin infection, dental infection, minor injuries, wound care, first aid, wound cleaning, minor cuts and grazes and skin disinfection.

This medicine combines 3 active ingredients: Metronidazole, Lidocaine and Chlorhexidine. Metronidazole kills or stops the growth of the bacteria causing your infection. Lidocaine supports the care of a minor injury or wound. Chlorhexidine kills germs on the skin and in a wound, reducing the chance of infection.

Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer and rub it in gently. Wash your hands before and after use, unless your hands are the area being treated. This is for use on the skin only — do not swallow it. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Finish the whole course even after you feel better. Do not drink any alcohol while taking metronidazole, ornidazole or tinidazole, or for the period after the course that your doctor states — the combination causes severe flushing, vomiting and a racing heart. Report severe or watery loose motions during or after the course rather than treating them yourself. Tetracyclines stain developing teeth and are avoided in young children and in pregnancy. Antibiotics do not work against colds, flu or most sore throats, which are caused by viruses. For external use only, unless the pack says otherwise. See a doctor for a deep, dirty or heavily bleeding wound, an animal bite, or any wound showing signs of infection. Check that your tetanus cover is current after any dirty or penetrating wound. For external use only. Keep away from the eyes and the inside of the mouth and nose unless the product is made for that purpose. Do not use a strong antiseptic repeatedly on an open wound — clean running water and soap around the edges are usually better, and harsh antiseptics slow healing. See a doctor for a deep or dirty wound, an animal bite, a wound that will not stop bleeding, or one that becomes red, swollen, warm or discharges.

Antacids, iron, zinc and calcium reduce the absorption of tetracyclines — separate them by a couple of hours. Tell your doctor if you take a blood thinner. No significant interactions are expected.

Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Close the cap tightly after each use. Keep out of the reach of children.
