Medicinal Benefits:

Diloxanide (amoebicide) works inside the large intestine to kill the infection-causing amoeba (parasites). Tinidazole (antibiotic) works by damaging the DNA (genetic material) of bacteria and protozoa and inhibits the formation of new DNA essential for bacteria's survival. Thereby, it kills micro-organisms and prevents the spread of infection. New Metroquin Tablet is also used in the treatment of giardiasis (infection in your small intestine), trichomoniasis (a common sexually transmitted infection caused by a parasite), and appendicitis (inflammation of the appendix).
