Aristogyl Suspension 60 mL

Aristogyl Suspension 60 mL is an oral metronidazole antibiotic suspension made by Aristo Pharmaceuticals, India. Each bottle contains 60 mL of suspension, and the active ingredient is metronidazole, a nitroimidazole antibiotic and antiprotozoal medicine. It is used for infections caused by certain bacteria and some parasites, especially when a liquid form is preferred. Aristogyl Suspension 60 mL should be taken only when prescribed, because metronidazole is not appropriate for every type of infection.

How it works: Metronidazole works by entering the bacteria or parasites and damaging their DNA, which stops them from growing and kills them off. In Aristogyl Suspension 60 mL, the liquid form makes it easier to swallow and measure the prescribed dose accurately, especially for patients who need a suspension instead of a tablet.

This 60 mL suspension is the liquid form of Aristogyl, which can be useful for people who have trouble swallowing tablets or who need a dose that can be measured more precisely. Because it is a suspension, it must be shaken well before each dose so the medicine is evenly mixed; a doctor may choose it when a liquid antibiotic is easier to take or better suited to the prescribed regimen.

• Bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms
• Certain parasitic infections
• Dental and gum infections when prescribed
• Infections of the stomach or intestines caused by anaerobic bacteria
• Other doctor-directed anaerobic infections

• Shake Aristogyl Suspension 60 mL well before each dose so the medicine is evenly mixed.
• Measure the dose carefully with a proper oral syringe or dosing cup, not a kitchen spoon.
• Take it exactly at the times your doctor prescribes; doses are often spaced evenly through the day.
• You may take it with food if it upsets your stomach.
• Finish the full course even if you start feeling better.
• Avoid alcohol during treatment and for at least 3 days after the last dose.

Each bottle provides 60 mL of metronidazole suspension, and the exact amount you take depends on your age, the infection being treated, and the prescribed strength per mL. It may be taken once daily or divided into multiple doses per day; your doctor decides the schedule and the maximum total daily amount based on the diagnosis and your response.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

• Nausea
• Metallic taste

• Stomach pain or cramping
• Loss of appetite
• Headache

• Do not drink alcohol during treatment and for at least 3 days after the last dose, because this can cause a severe reaction.
• Use caution if you have liver disease, since metronidazole may build up in the body and need dose adjustment.
• Tell your doctor if you take warfarin or other blood thinners, because metronidazole can increase bleeding risk.
• Be careful driving or using machinery if you feel dizzy, sleepy, or unsteady after taking the suspension.
• Report any numbness, tingling, or burning sensations promptly, as longer treatment can sometimes affect nerves.
• Inform your clinician if you have a history of seizures or blood disorders.
• If the suspension contains sugar or sweeteners, people with diabetes should ask about the formulation and how to fit it into their meal plan.
