What is it used for?

It may also be used for bacterial vaginosis and certain sexually transmitted infections, as prescribed.

How does it work?
It damages the genetic material of susceptible bacteria and parasites, stopping them from growing and surviving.

How to take/use it

Precautions
Tell the doctor about liver disease, nervous-system problems, pregnancy or breastfeeding, and all other medicines being taken, especially warfarin, lithium or disulfiram. Seek medical advice for numbness or tingling, seizures, severe diarrhoea, or signs of an allergic reaction.
