About Metlife Injection
Metlife Injection belongs to a group of medicines known as anti-bacterial agents used to treat severe bacterial infections of the bone, skin and skin structure, blood, joint, abdomen, central nervous system, respiratory, gynaecological infections, meningitis (infection of the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord), and endocarditis (infection of the heart lining and valves).
Metlife Injection contains Metronidazole, which suppresses protein synthesis by interacting with DNA and causes helical DNA structure loss and strand breakage. As a result, it induces cell death in susceptible organisms. Thereby Metlife Injection treats bacterial infections.
Metlife Injection will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Some common side effects of Metlife Injection are nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and injection site reaction. These side effects are temporary and may get resolved after some time. However, if any of the side effects persist or worsen, contact the doctor.
Let your doctor know if you are allergic to metronidazole. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or if you are breastfeeding. Do not operate heavy machinery or drive after taking Metlife Injection as it may cause dizziness and drowsiness. Avoid consumption of alcohol while on treatment with Metlife Injection as it may cause unpleasant side effects.

Caution should be exercised. Metlife Injection may enhance the anticoagulant activity of warfarin and other oral anticoagulants by extending prothrombin time. Inform your doctor if you are taking such medications.
No. Metlife Injection is an antibacterial medicine that acts only against bacterial infections, not viral infections like common cold and flu.
Metlife Injection should only be used to treat or prevent infections that have been proven or are strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible anaerobic bacteria.
Extreme caution should be exercised while using Metlife Injection in patients with severe liver damage, blood formation disorder, brain, spinal cord or nervous disease. So, let your doctor know if you have any of these conditions.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Bacterial infection: A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect the body. It can target any body part and multiply very quickly. Generalized symptoms include fever, chills, and fatigue. Bacteria are of various forms comprising spherical, rod, and spiral-shaped. Bacterial infections vary from minor illnesses like sore throat and ear infections to severe brain infections like meningitis and encephalitis. Anyone can become infected with a bacterial infection. But, people with a weak immune system or taking immunosuppressive medicines are more prone to bacterial infection.
