Effectiveness

How Metrolotion Affects PatientsMetronidazole is a drug that can treat certain bacterial and parasitic infections. It works by damaging the DNA of the microbes, but it does not work on most regular bacteria or on aerobic organisms. Taking metronidazole at higher doses can lead to convulsions and numbness in the extremities, so it should be taken with caution. It has been found to possibly cause cancer in mice and rats, but it is unknown if this applies to humans. It is best to only take metronidazole when absolutely necessary and only for its approved uses.
How Metrolotion works in the bodyMetronidazole works by entering cells and then producing toxic compounds that damage the DNA of bacteria and protozoa. It has a special affinity for anaerobic and microaerophilic organisms, meaning it is particularly effective against them. It affects their electron transport proteins and blocks their ability to produce new DNA, which prevents them from replicating.

When to interrupt dosage

The measure of Metrolotion is contingent on the diagnosed affliction, including Exposure through partner, Skin and Curling Ulcer. The quantity of dosage likewise differs as per the method of administration (e.g. Capsule or Vaginal) mentioned in the table beneath.

Metrolotion Toxicity & Overdose RiskThe toxic dose of metronidazole in rats is 5000 mg/kg. Symptoms of an overdose include tingling in the arms and legs, confusion, seizures, a reaction to alcohol, dark urine, a bad taste in the mouth, nausea, stomach pains, dizziness, and a low white blood cell count. There is no specific treatment for metronidazole overdose. Treatment should include supportive care and activated charcoal to remove the drug from the body. It's also important to contact the local poison control center for more information on how to manage an overdose.

Metrolotion Reviews: What are patients saying about Metrolotion?

Metrolotion for Acne Rosacea
This topical rosacea treatment did exactly what it said it would. I experienced no negative side effects, like my skin getting worse when I started using it, and after just one month my rosacea was completely gone.

Metrolotion for Acne Rosacea
It took a few weeks to start seeing results, but it was worth the wait. Once it began working, I saw a significant difference. Consistency is key with this treatment.

Metrolotion for Acne Rosacea
I was very disappointed with this treatment. I saw no change in my redness after four weeks, and if anything, it might have gotten worse.
