MetroGel - metronidazole

MetroGel is the most prescribed rosacea medication by dermatologists: it's a once-a-day topical gel containing metronidazole as its active ingredient. It is designed to control rosacea and improve the skin's look by helping to reduce the inflammatory lesions and redness caused by the condition. Its high water content helps moisturize the skin while facilitating the absorption of the medicine.

The application of metronidazole has caused the following adverse reactions in some patients: burning, skin irritation, dryness, transient redness, metallic taste, tingling or numbness of extremities and nausea.
