Metronidazole is a nitroimidazole antibiotic, also known as metronidazol and novonidazol. It was initially used to treat vaginal trichomaniasis, with very significant clinical effects. It is broadly used to prevent and treat oral anaerobic infections. In hospitals, it has been used frequently to prevent and treat respiratory, gastrointestinal, peritoneal, pelvic, skin, soft tissue, joint, and brain infections, cardiomyitis, and septicemia caused by anaerobic bacteria. The effectiveness of Metronidazole towards treating body tissue and intestinal amoebiasis is significant, and it the preferred drug to treat parasitosis.
Metronidazole kills anaerobic microorganisms, and its metabolites in the body during reduction also inhibit them by inhibiting DNA synthesis, thus interfering with bacterial growth and propagation, eventually killing them. Anaerobic bacteria affected include: Bacteroides fragilis, Fusobacterium (so named because of its sharp fusiform shape at both ends,) Clostridium tetani, Peptostreptococcus, and Giardia lamblia. Its mechanism of action in the treatment of parasites is to disrupt protozoans' nitrogen chains by inhibiting their redox reactions.
