Flagyl 200 mg is an antibiotic medication commonly prescribed to treat a variety of bacterial and protozoal infections, including dental infections, gastrointestinal infections, bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis, amoebiasis, and giardiasis. It works by inhibiting the growth of microorganisms by damaging their DNA, helping the body eliminate the infection effectively. It is generally taken under strict medical supervision because dosage and duration depend on the type and severity of infection. Common side effects may include nausea, a metallic taste in the mouth, loss of appetite, and mild stomach upset.
