Metronidazole belongs to the nitroimidazole group. Doctors use it for infections caused by certain bacteria and parasites, such as amoebic dysentery, some gum and dental infections and particular vaginal infections. It has been part of Indian practice for decades and remains a high-volume generic.
General physicians, gynaecologists, dentists, paediatricians and surgeons prescribe it. Tablets and suspensions sell from almost every chemist, from city pharmacies to village medical stores, while gels go mainly to dental and gynae practices. Demand for gut infection products rises during summer and the monsoon.

What to check in an anti-infective franchise
Metronidazole products carry low prices, so the value of the franchise depends on the rest of the anti-infective and gastro list. Look for oral rehydration salts, probiotics, ornidazole and tinidazole combinations, antibiotics and antispasmodics. Compare PTR and margin on suspensions and tablets separately. Fix the monopoly area in writing. Suspensions need a pleasant taste and stable colour, so sample them, and check bottle seals. Ask about shelf life on supplied stock, how expiry returns are handled and the visual aids and samples offered.
Commissioning metronidazole from a contract manufacturer
Give the manufacturer the exact composition, dosage form, flavour for suspensions, pack size and minimum order quantity. Metronidazole has a bitter taste, so ask how the plant masks it in paediatric products. Request stability data, certificates of analysis per batch and product permission for any combination. For gels, specify the tube and base. Use a licensed plant that follows Schedule M GMP, and hold a valid drug licence and GST registration yourself.
