What is Metronidazole?

Metronidazole is an antibiotic effective against various bacteria and parasites. It's often prescribed for treating different conditions such as skin infections and pelvic inflammatory disease. Additionally, it can be used to treat sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like trichomoniasis.

Trichomoniasis, often known as 'trich', is a common infection caused by a parasite called Trichomonas vaginalis. Symptoms typically show up within a month after being infected, but about half of those who have trich won't experience any symptoms at all.

Trich is caused by a parasite that's typically passed on through unprotected sex. If symptoms appear, they often resemble those of other STIs. Women with the infection might notice soreness around their genitals, along with redness, itching, and a burning feeling. Urination can be uncomfortable, and there may be a clear, yellow, or green discharge with an unusual odour. Men with trich can have similar symptoms, such as irritation inside their genitals, a burning sensation after urinating, and a thin, white discharge from the penis.

How does Metronidazole work?

Metronidazole stops bacteria and parasites from growing, which helps to treat infections. It's one of the most commonly prescribed medicines and is used for a variety of bacterial infections.

The tablets have a 'cytotoxic' effect, which means they can damage certain cells. In practical terms, Metronidazole works by breaking down and eliminating the parasite (Trichomonas vaginalis) responsible for your trich infection.

Metronidazole is often given as a topical cream, lotion, or gel to help with skin conditions such as rosacea. It's also used inside the vagina to treat bacterial vaginosis.

What doses of Metronidazole are there?

For treating trich, Metronidazole is provided in 400mg tablets.

Typically, you would take one 400mg tablet twice daily for a week.

To help you remember to take your Metronidazole tablets and avoid any errors, consider setting an alarm as a reminder. To ensure the infection doesn't come back, it's important to finish the entire course of antibiotics.

Does Metronidazole work right away?

Antibiotics are typically used to treat trichomoniasis. They act swiftly, and after you've completed the course of tablets, you generally won't need any more medication, as this is usually sufficient to eliminate the infection.

You may begin to feel better within a few days of taking Metronidazole, but it's crucial to complete the full 7-day course of tablets to ensure the antibiotics work effectively. If there's no improvement after 7 days, consult a clinician about other STI treatment options.

What should I do if I make a mistake when using Metronidazole?

If you take Metronidazole exactly as your clinician has prescribed, you're unlikely to make any mistakes while using the tablets.

If you've taken more tablets than you should, it's best to head to your nearest hospital straight away for help. It will be easier for the doctor to assist you if you can give them as much information as possible when you arrive, so try to bring the box your Metronidazole tablets came in.

If you miss a tablet of your antibiotics, there's no need to take a double dose. Just wait until it's time for your next dose and carry on with your treatment as usual.

While you're taking Metronidazole, it's important to steer clear of alcohol, as it can lead to vomiting and stomach pain. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, make sure to inform your healthcare professional before beginning the medication. Metronidazole may occasionally make you feel sleepy or dizzy. If you experience these effects, it's best to avoid driving.

Is Metronidazole similar to any other treatments for trichomoniasis?

Metronidazole is usually prescribed for most people with a trichomoniasis infection.

It's occasionally given as a one-time 2g dose, but research has shown that this approach is not as effective as taking the antibiotic over a seven-day period.

If you've been advised to take Metronidazole for your trich infection and it doesn't seem to be effective, you might be resistant to this antibiotic, though this is uncommon. If you notice no improvement after finishing your course of tablets, please talk to one of our clinicians.

Does Metronidazole affect contraception?

Metronidazole doesn't interfere with any types of contraception, including emergency contraceptives and the combined pill.

If the tablets cause diarrhoea or make you vomit, they might prevent contraceptives from working effectively if they haven't been fully absorbed into your system yet.

If you experience these side effects from taking Metronidazole, stop using it straight away and inform a healthcare professional. They can guide you on any contraceptives you're using and whether you need to take extra steps to prevent an unplanned pregnancy while you look for a different treatment for trichomoniasis.

Will I get any side effects from using Metronidazole?

Antibiotics such as Metronidazole can occasionally lead to side effects, but they vary from person to person, so it's uncertain which ones you might experience, if any at all.

The leaflet that comes with your medication includes a complete list of possible side effects from taking the tablets.

If you notice any severe side effects, it might indicate an allergic reaction. Look out for symptoms such as swelling of the hands, feet, or throat, skin rashes, skin peeling, and a fever. If you experience any of these, it's important to get medical help straight away by visiting the accident and emergency department at your nearest hospital.

Can you get Metronidazole over the counter?

Metronidazole is a medication that requires a prescription, so you won't be able to buy it over the counter at pharmacies or supermarkets.

Antibiotics must be prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional who can oversee your treatment with Metronidazole. This helps minimise any risks and ensures the tablets are safe for you to take.

Metronidazole isn't right for everyone, and there are a few things you should keep in mind when using it.

My dog loves this toy!
Color: Green
I was NOT expecting my dog to like this toy, but she loves it! The legs are stretchy and the body vibrates. The battery lasts about a month.

Great interactive toy. Worth the price.
Color: Blue
Our Lab absolutely loves it. She throws it all over the house. It’s so fun to watch her play with it. It’s by far her favorite toy right now. It’s easy to charge and came with charging cable. It has a button to turn off and on and a couple different speeds. My parents got her a different one for Christmas and since she loved it so much we decided to get her another one. It’s pretty durable too. She normally rips through toys pretty quickly and both of the ones she has are still in good shape. No rips or tears. She hasn’t tried just chewing on it like she does her squeaky toys. She just throws it all around the house and chases it.

Fun, enticing dog toy. As stated in description it won’t hold up for aggressive chewers
Color: Blue
Rating this based on description. My dog loved this toy. It was smaller than I had pictured in my head, but that was on me. I did read the description ahead of time, which clearly states this is not for aggressive chewers. My dog is trained not to rip toys apart so I wanted to give this a shot, but i guess just her jaw strength and teeth were too much. She carried it everywhere. I turned it on periodically. The movements are small, but enough for her to be captivated with the toy. It did mostly survive for about a day before I needed to take it away due to the Velcro opening. Once it started to pull apart she did chew a piece of the Velcro off. It might be helpful with a flap over design covering the Velcro. I have a singing Santa decoration like this where the Velcro is covered up and I have to pull it back a little to get to the Velcro opening. The gaps on the sides of the closure are a bit to large making it tempt my dog to pull and open it up. I wish there was a more durable option that could hold up to aggressive chewers, but this product was clear about that in the description. I think the opening to the batteries could use some improvement. Granted I do not have the perfect answer to fix this, but I am also not a toy designer.

A Toy Ball for All Seasons!
Style: Small Ball, Size: 1 Count, Style: Small Ball, Size: 1 Count
Oh my gosh! I’m so happy to find the almost exact ball my 5 1/2 pound 9 month old Morkie, Charlie, that mommy lost at the campgrounds! It was his favorite toy and although he has others, he loved this one above all others, so to find another one was an answer to my prayers. The difference is so minor and in a good way. It is very durable as Charlie has very sharp teeth, but this one is just a bit softer making it easier to hang on to playing fetch. But for Charlie, the size is the same, the squeekiness is the same, the color is the same (yes they can see some colors) and he went into a jumping frenzy when I took it out of the package and the price was unbelievably inexpensive for such a high quality toy! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Good mommy! ( I’m ordering another one as a back up, jic!)

Great investment.
Style: Small Ball, Size: 2 Count
Dogs love them. Durable. Chew worthy for a beagle and a German shepherd. You cannot smell the flavor imparted but the pups definitely can. Always purchase the amount you need so each dog can have one. .
