Directions
You should always take Metronidazole Tablets exactly as your doctor has told you. If you are unsure, check with your doctor or pharmacist.
The usual dose of metronidazole depends on the condition being treated and the patients age and weight. For dental infections, short courses of Metronidazole (3 days) are routinely prescribed to clear up infections before evaluation or treatment by a dentist. It is important to know a visit to the dentist is still required as soon as possible after metronidazole treatment.
