What is Metrobactin?
Metrobactin contains metronidazole, an antimicrobial and antiprotozoal medicine. It is licensed for the treatment of gastrointestinal tract infections caused by susceptible Giardia and Clostridium species, and infections of the urogenital tract, oral cavity, throat and skin caused by susceptible obligate anaerobic bacteria.

- 500mg – 500mg metronidazole per tablet.
The tablets have a cross-shaped break line and can be divided into two or four equal parts. Vetalia supplies Metrobactin as individual tablets so the quantity dispensed can match the veterinary prescription.
Administration
Metrobactin is administered orally. Give the strength, dose, frequency and duration stated by your veterinary surgeon and on the veterinary prescription. Antimicrobial medicines should be used responsibly.
