ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Metronidazole is bactericidal against anaerobic bacteria; it exerts
trichomonacidal activity and is
also active against _Giardia lamblia_ and _Entamoeba histolytica_. Its
exact mechanism of action
has not been entirely determined as yet. It has been proposed that an
intermediate in the
reduction of metronidazole, produced only in anaerobic bacteria and
protozoa is bound to
deoxyribonucleic acid and electron-transport proteins, inhibits
subsequent nucleic acid synthesis.
At present, the mechanism by which topical metronidazole reduces the
lesions and erythema
associated with acne rosacea is not precisely known. Despite the
established antimicrobial
effects of metronidazole, there is no evidence that the suppression of
bacteria or parasitic mites
harbored in the skin is directly responsible for its beneficial
effects in rosacea. _In vitro_ and _in _
_vivo_ studies indicate that metronidazole has direct antiinflammatory
activity and affects
neutrophil chemotaxis and cell-mediated immunity. An antioxidant
action via inhibition of
neutrophil-generated reactive oxygen species has also been
demonstrated; this action is believed
to underlie its antiinflammatory effect. It has been proposed that the
reduction in rosacea lesions
and erythema is the result of antiinflammatory or immunosuppressive
actions of metronidazole.
Nystatin is an antifungal antibiotic, produced by a strain of
_Streptomyces noursei_, active against
yeasts and yeast like fungi, including Candida albicans. The
antifungal activity is probably due
to the binding of
