Description
Flagyl Syrup (Benzoyl Metronidazole) is a pediatric formulation of metronidazole, where the active compound is esterified with benzoic acid to mask the bitter taste, making it more palatable for children. Once ingested, it is hydrolyzed in the gut back to active metronidazole, exerting the same antiprotozoal and antibacterial effects. It is commonly used in children to treat intestinal amebiasis, giardiasis, and anaerobic bacterial infections. The syrup form allows accurate weight-based dosing, making it a preferred choice in pediatric practice.
