Metronidazole Braun belongs to a group of medicines called\u00a0antibiotics.\u00a0It is used to treat and prevent\u00a0infections\u00a0caused by bacteria that are sensitive to the active substance metronidazole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can get Metronidazole Braun for the treatment of the following diseases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Metronidazole Braun can also be given for preventive purposes before abdominal surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Metronidazole contained in Metronidazole Braun may also be approved for the treatment of other conditions not mentioned in this product information.\u00a0Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or another healthcare professional if you have any further questions, and always follow their instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Talk to your doctor or nurse before receiving Metronidazole Braun:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your doctor will consider very carefully if you can get Metronidazole Braun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tell your doctor immediately if you get any of the following symptoms during treatment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These symptoms may be due to the medicine affecting your nervous system, especially if you have been using Metronidazole Braun for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have a severe allergic reaction (such as anaphylactic shock ), treatment will be stopped immediately. See section 4 for further information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Contact a doctor immediately if you have severe diarrhea. Diarrhea can be caused by a severe disease of the colon called pseudomembranous colitis<\/em> (see also section 4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n As long-term use of metronidazole may cause blood disorders (see section 4), your blood counts will be monitored if you need to use the medicine for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Metronidazole Braun may cause harmless darkening of the urine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription.\u00a0You must tell your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are going to have a blood test, you should tell your doctor that you are taking Metronidazole Braun. The drug may affect the test result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You must abstain from alcoholic beverages during treatment with metronidazole and for 24 hours after stopping treatment. Alcohol consumption can cause intolerance reactions such as dizziness and vomiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor for advice before using this medicine.\u00a0Metronidazole passes into breast milk and you should therefore not breastfeed during treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not drive or use machines during treatment with metronidazole as metronidazole may affect your ability to react. This is especially true at the beginning of treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires sharpened attention.\u00a0One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or\u00a0side effects.\u00a0Descriptions of these effects and\u00a0side effects\u00a0can be found in other sections.\u00a0Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.\u00a0If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist<\/p>\n\n\n\n This medicine contains 322 mg\u00a0sodium\u00a0(the main ingredient in table salt\/table salt) per 100 ml.\u00a0This corresponds to 16% of the maximum recommended daily\u00a0sodium\u00a0intake for adults.\u00a0If the product is diluted with sodium chloride, the added\u00a0sodium\u00a0should also be considered.\u00a0Talk to your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This medicine is given to you by a doctor or nurse. It is given as a drip directly into a vein ( intravenous infusion ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dosage\u00a0one depends on the type and severity of your illness, on your age and body weight, and on how you respond to treatment.\u00a0The doctor will decide the right\u00a0dose\u00a0for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If necessary, in addition to Metronidazole Braun, you can also be given other\u00a0antibiotics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In case of overdose, you may experience the symptoms described under\u00a0the side effects\u00a0in section 4. If you get\u00a0any side effects, talk to your doctor or nurse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like all medicines, this medicine can cause\u00a0side effects, although not everybody gets them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n High\u00a0doses\u00a0and long-term use increase the risk of\u00a0side effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following side effects can be serious. Tell your doctor or nurse immediately if you get any of the following side effects:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Other side effects are<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Uncommon (may affect up to 1 in 100 people)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Rare (may affect up to 1 in 1,000 people)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Has been reported (occurs in an unknown number of users):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Keep this medicine out of the sight and reach of children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not use this medicine after the expiry date which is stated on the carton and carton.
