Pharmacology and toxicity
Potent Anaerobicidal Nitro -imidazole derivative. The exact mechanism of action of metronidazole is unknown. At physiologic pH, metronidazole is un-ionized and taken up readily by anaerobic organisms. The drug then undergoes intracellular chemical reduction via mechanisms unique to anaerobes. Reduced metronidazole interacts with DNA and inhibits nucleic acid synthesis, leading to cell death. Metronidazole is equally effective against dividing and nondividing cells.
Disease treated Metronidazole is mainly used in the treatment of anaerobe bacterial infection.
