Metronidazole Flagyl

Flagyl (metronidazole, antimicrobial agent) tablets are available in 200 mg and 400 mg strengths. Istin (amlodipine, a dihydropyridine calcium-channel blocker) is available as 5 mg and 10 mg tablets. Risperdal (risperidone. [Pg.70]

The mode of action of metronidazole (Flagyl) is not well understood, but it is thought to disrupt DNA and protein syndiesis in susceptible organisms. This drug may be used in the treatment of serious infections, such as intraabdominal, bone, soft tissue, lower respiratory, gynecologic, and CNS infections caused by susceptible anaerobic (able to live without oxygen) microorganisms. [Pg.102]

The charge nurse asks you to discuss the drug metronidazole (Flagyl) at a team conference. Determine what specific points regarding administration and patient and family teaching you would discuss at the conference. [Pg.107]

Iodoquinol (Yodoxin) and metronidazole (Flagyl) are used to treat intestinal amebiasis. Metronidazole is also used to treat infections caused by susceptible microorganisms and is discussed in Chapter 11. Fkromomycin is an aminoglycoside with amebicidal activity and is used to treat intestinal amebiasis. Chloroquine hydrochloride (Aralen) is used to treat extraintestinal amebiasis. [Pg.146]

Metronidazole Flagyl, Metrogel) exerts activity against most anaerobic bacteria and several protozoa. The drug freely penetrates protozoal and bacterial cells but not mammalian cells. Metronidazole can function as an electron sink, and because it does so, its 5-nitro group is reduced. The enzyme, pyruvate-ferredoxin oxidoreduc-tase, found only in anaerobic organisms, reduces metronidazole and thereby activates the drug. Reduced metronidazole disrupts replication and transcription and inhibits DNA repair. [Pg.608]
