Troniz Tablet 500 mg contains Ornidazole, an antibiotic and antiprotozoal medication used to treat a variety of bacterial and protozoal infections. It is particularly effective against infections of the gastrointestinal tract, reproductive system, and skin, as well as certain anaerobic bacterial infections.

Ornidazole works by interfering with the DNA of bacteria and protozoa, ultimately killing the microorganisms and stopping their growth. Troniz is commonly prescribed for intestinal infections, amoebiasis, giardiasis, bacterial vaginosis, and other susceptible infections, providing rapid relief of symptoms and effective eradication of pathogens.

Composition

• Active Ingredient: Ornidazole

• Strength: 500 mg per tablet

Ornidazole is a nitroimidazole antibiotic that enters microbial cells and undergoes reduction to produce reactive intermediates. These intermediates:
