Product Description

Specifications: Metronidazole 0.2g, Artificial Bezoar 5mg
Drug category: Western medicine

Indications: Used for acute pericoronitis of wisdom teeth, localized alveolar abscesses, pulpitis, apical periodontitis, and more.

Pharmacological effects: Metronidazole exhibits potent antibacterial activity against most anaerobic bacteria. Its antimicrobial spectrum includes species such as *Bacteroides fragilis* and other *Bacteroides* species, *Fusobacterium*, *Clostridium perfringens*, *Eubacterium*, *Veillonella*, *Peptostreptococcus*, and *Streptococcus* species. The bactericidal concentration of metronidazole is slightly higher than its inhibitory concentration. While the exact mechanism of metronidazole’s bactericidal action remains partially unclear, anaerobic bacteria rely heavily on nitroreductase enzymes for energy metabolism—enzymes that are critical in susceptible strains. Metronidazole works by reducing its nitro group into a cytotoxic compound, which interferes with bacterial DNA synthesis and ultimately leads to cell death. Notably, resistant bacteria often lack functional nitroreductase enzymes, rendering them insensitive to metronidazole. Additionally, artificial bezoar possesses antipyretic and anti-inflammatory properties.
