Metrogyl Gel belongs to a group of medicines known as nitroimidazole antimicrobials used to treat rosacea. It helps to treat pimples, pustules (spots), and redness associated with this condition. Rosacea is a long-term medical condition that mostly affects the skin of the face, causing redness on the forehead, cheeks, chin, and nose.

Metrogyl Gel contains Metronidazole which works by stopping the growth of bacteria. It alleviates rosacea lesions due to its anti-inflammatory or immunosuppressive activities.

Rosacea: Rosacea is a long-term skin disorder that primarily affects the face. The initial signs of rosacea include intermittent redness (blushing) throughout the nose, cheeks, forehead, and chin. Other symptoms include dry skin, swelling, particularly around the eyes, and yellow-orange spots on the skin. It is more common in women and people with lighter skin, but symptoms might worsen in men. Rosacea cannot be cured permanently; however, it can be managed with the help of medications. If not treated, it can worsen.
