COLLAGEN+METRONIDAZOLE+MUPIROCIN is an antibiotic medication primarily used to treat non-healing wound ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcers, pressure ulcers (bed sores), infected wounds, and minimally to heavy draining wounds. It also treats surgical, open-fracture, tunnel-fissure, and traumatic wounds.
COLLAGEN+METRONIDAZOLE+MUPIROCIN is composed of Collagen, Metronidazole, and Mupirocin. Collagen promotes wound healing by laying down a collagen matrix in the wound bed, thus aiding the formation of granulation tissue (new connective tissue) and epithelialization (repairing the wounded area). Metronidazole belongs to the class of drugs called nitroimidazole antimicrobials. It exerts bactericidal (kills bacteria) action and inhibits bacterial DNA synthesis and cell growth. Mupirocin is an antibacterial drug. It prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out their vital functions, thus preventing bacterial growth.
COLLAGEN+METRONIDAZOLE+MUPIROCIN is for external use only. Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Common side effects of COLLAGEN+METRONIDAZOLE+MUPIROCIN include itching, burning/stinging sensation, irritation, dryness, and redness at the application site.

COLLAGEN+METRONIDAZOLE+MUPIROCIN acts as a 'sacrificial substrate' and reduces the levels of MMP (Matrix Metallo-Proteinases, enzymes that digest components of the extracellular matrix) in the wound. It consists of Collagen, Mupirocin and Metronidazole. Collagen promotes the formation of granulation tissue and epithelialization. It also maintains a moist wound-healing environment. Mupirocin is an antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out their vital functions. Metronidazole is an antibacterial drug that treats skin ulcers, bed sores, wounds, and other bacterial and parasitic infections. It inhibits the DNA synthesis of bacteria and certain parasites and prevents their cell growth.
