Metrogyl Gel

Product Introduction
Metrogyl Gel is a topical antibiotic that helps in managing acne and certain skin infections. It works by preventing the growth of bacteria, which helps in reducing pimples and clearing up the infection.

This gel is intended for external application only and should be used strictly on the affected skin area in the exact dosage and duration suggested by your healthcare provider. To achieve the best results, apply it consistently, preferably at the same time each day. Avoid using excessive amounts or applying it more frequently than advised, as this may increase the risk of irritation and other side effects. Visible improvements may take a few weeks to months, so consistent use and patience are important.

Some common side effects may include mild dryness, redness, burning sensation, or irritation at the site of application. These effects are usually temporary and subside as your skin adjusts to the medication. If they persist or worsen, it’s best to seek medical guidance.

Before beginning treatment, inform your doctor about any allergies or medical conditions you have. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use. Take care to avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, or inside the nose. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
