Metronidazole vaginal gel 0.75?

Metronidazole vaginal gel 0.75% is a prescription antibiotic used to treat bacterial vaginosis. The typical regimen is 5 g of gel intravaginally once daily for 5 days.

How to use (general guidance):
- Use the included applicator to insert 5 g of gel into the vagina once daily, usually at bedtime.
- After inserting, wash your hands. Avoid douching or using other vaginal products unless your clinician says it’s okay.
- If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it’s almost time for your next dose; don’t double up.

Common side effects:
- Vaginal itching, burning, irritation, or abnormal discharge
- Headache
- Occasionally a metallic taste or nausea if the gel is swallowed accidentally

Important precautions:
- Alcohol: Avoid consuming alcohol during treatment with metronidazole (and for about 24 hours after the last dose) due to possible disulfiram-like reactions.
- Sexual activity: It’s usually advised to avoid or use protection during treatment to reduce the risk of reinfection; check with your clinician.
- Pregnancy/lactation: Tell your doctor if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding before using this product.
- Interactions: Tell your clinician about all medicines you use, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
- When to seek care: Seek medical advice if you have severe or persistent itching, swelling, rash, fever, or if you suspect an allergic reaction. If you have severe vaginal bleeding or new severe symptoms, contact a healthcare provider.

Storage and disposal:
- Store at room temperature, away from heat and moisture. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use after the expiration date.
