Instructions for Metrogyl® Plus (clotrimazole, metronidazole) vaginal gel
Dual-Action Vaginal Care for Balance and Comfort
Metrogyl Plus Vaginal Gel is a combined vaginal formulation designed to support the management of mixed vaginal infections where both bacterial and fungal imbalances may be present. This product contains two well-known active ingredients that work together locally to help restore vaginal balance, reduce discomfort, and support a healthier vaginal environment.
The gel is supplied in a 50 g tube, providing a sufficient amount for a full course of use. Its smooth, non-greasy texture allows for comfortable application and even distribution, making it suitable for consistent daily use as directed.
Dual Active Formula: How It Works
Metrogyl Plus combines:
Metronidazole (20 mg/g) – active against anaerobic bacteria commonly associated with bacterial vaginal imbalance
Clotrimazole (10 mg/g) – a broad-spectrum antifungal ingredient effective against yeast overgrowth
Together, these ingredients provide dual-action support, addressing two common causes of vaginal discomfort at the same time. This combined approach helps reduce the need for multiple separate products and supports more comprehensive care.
The gel is applied directly to the vaginal area, allowing the active ingredients to work locally without unnecessary systemic exposure.

Common Uses
Metrogyl Plus Vaginal Gel is commonly used when symptoms suggest a combination of vaginal imbalances, including:
Vaginal itching or irritation
Burning or discomfort
Unusual vaginal discharge
Mixed bacterial and yeast-related symptoms
Recurrent vaginal imbalance
By addressing both bacterial and fungal components, the gel helps support symptom relief and promotes a healthier vaginal environment.
Why a Vaginal Gel?
The vaginal gel formulation offers several advantages over tablets or creams:
Spreads evenly over vaginal tissues
Provides immediate local contact
Offers soothing moisture to irritated areas
Allows active ingredients to work gradually
This makes the gel particularly suitable for individuals experiencing dryness, irritation, or sensitivity.
Directions for Use Metrogyl® Plus
Metrogyl Plus Vaginal Gel is intended for intravaginal use only.
General use guidance:
Wash hands before application.
Use the provided applicator (if included) to insert the recommended amount of gel deep into the vagina.
Apply preferably at bedtime to allow prolonged contact overnight.
Use consistently for the full recommended course, even if symptoms improve earlier.
Completing the full course helps support optimal results and reduces the likelihood of symptom recurrence.
What to Expect During Use
Many users begin to notice relief from itching and irritation within the first few days of use. Discomfort and abnormal discharge often decrease gradually as the gel continues to work. Mild local sensations such as warmth or increased moisture may occur temporarily and usually resolve on their own.
Consistency is important, as stopping treatment too early may allow symptoms to return.
Additional Care Tips
Avoid sexual intercourse during treatment for best results
Maintain good intimate hygiene
Avoid using other vaginal products unless advised
Wear breathable cotton underwear
Supporting vaginal health with proper care can enhance the effectiveness of treatment.
