Metrogel uses
Chemical Name: Metronidazole (me-troe-NI-da-zole)
Metrogel is used for the treatment of a skin condition known as acne rosacea. Metrogel for rosacea contains the active ingredient metronidazole, which is a form of drugs known as antibiotics.
Metronidazole is applied to the skin to treat rosacea. During this condition, there is inflammation of the cheeks, nose, chin, forehead, and eyelids, with excessive redness or acne-like eruptions in these areas of the face.
Metrogel uses also include helping to clear up spots and cysts related to the condition, and it additionally reduces redness. It is not completely understood how metronidazole helps with acne because no specific microorganisms have been identified as the cause of this condition.
However, it is assumed that it works by reducing inflammation within the skin.
It usually takes two to a few months of applying metronidazole to the skin to clear up the spots because of acne.
You can easily purchase Metrogel 1% online from Canada Pharmacy and have it delivered to your doorstep at the best price.
