Manufacturer: Elfa, Poland
Release form: dental gel
Active ingredient: choline salicylate, cetalkonium chloride

The possibility of use in children from 1 year and anti-inflammatory effect are the main advantages of Cholisal.
Both medications are used for gum inflammation. They do not interact with other drugs or hygiene products. If the inflammatory process is accompanied by bleeding and pus, then it is preferable to choose a medication based on chlorhexidine and metronidazole.
The drug "Metronidazole"
The drug Metrogyl is in the form of a solution for internal administration. The analogue discussed in this part of the article is also available in the form of a solution. Metronidazole is a drug whose appearance on the drug market ended with great success. And not only for its quality, but also for its versatility in terms of produced forms.

The drug "Klion"
Another analogue in tablet form is Metrogyl. This analogue can be purchased at absolutely any pharmacy, paying only a little more than sixty rubles for it. And the name of this analogue is “Klion”. Many people have probably heard the name of this medicine more than once. Television and radio advertise this product with might and main. What is this remedy?
It’s worth starting with the fact that the manufacturers of this drug produce Klion in two forms - tablets and solution. Tablets, as mentioned above, are cheap, but the solution will cost the buyer one hundred rubles. As the manufacturer promises, the effect of this drug will not take long to appear.
As for taking this medicine, the following can be said about this. "Klion" is used either during a meal or immediately after a meal. The duration of the entire course depends on the disease that the patient has. Basically, the course is ten or five days. The only thing that can be added is that this drug is prescribed to children only after two years of age.
The solution is administered intravenously using a regular dropper. The dose of the drug is calculated solely based on the patient’s body weight.
Before use, be sure to consult your doctor. After all, he is the one who will prescribe exactly the right dose of the drug “Klion” that the patient definitely needs.
This is all that can be said about this medicine. It is in no way inferior to the drug Metrogyl. Perhaps in some moments it even wins. But whether to buy this product or not is, of course, up to the buyer himself.
The drug "Metroxan"
A large number of drugs can replace Metrogyl. Analogues, the replacement of which is quite possible for the original product, are in no way inferior to their competitor, even in a variety of forms. One of these forms is an internal solution. This drug is good because, due to the fact that it is administered orally, its effect appears much faster than from tablets. Therefore, we can say that this medicine beats Metrogil. Firstly, tablets do not always have a favorable effect on the stomach, and secondly, we repeat once again, the effect of injections manifests itself much faster. But what is better - tablets or injections - is up to the patient to decide.
The only disadvantage of this drug is the price. "Metroxan" is more expensive not only than "Metrogil", but also its other analogues. This factor may well scare away future buyers of this product. But again, the result it gives is worth it.
Instructions for use "Rozamet"

The instructions also say that before use it is necessary to check for allergies to this drug. This is done quite easily. A small amount of ointment should be applied either to your wrist or to the crook of your elbow. Then wait ten minutes. If there is no redness or itching, then this medicine can be safely taken. It is available without a doctor's prescription, but it is still worth consulting with a specialist.
The price for such a drug starts from one hundred and fifty rubles. As for the reviews about this product, they are mostly positive. The rash goes away after two or even three weeks.
As you can see, Metrogyl-gel also has substitutes. Analogues are cheap, easy to use and no less effective than Metrogyl.
The drug "Trichosept"
Another drug that can easily replace Metrogyl is Trichosept suppositories. This option is suitable for those who do not like injections or who do not like to swallow pills. The exact price of this drug is not indicated on the Internet. This product is available in only one form. Therefore, you should not try to find this drug in the form of tablets or ointments.
Inside the box, as usual, you can find instructions for using this good drug and the medicine itself. Important! This medicine can only be used by women, as it is inserted into the vagina. This procedure should be carried out no more than once a day. The duration of taking this drug is ten days.
The drug "Trichosept" is absolutely popular. Reviews about it are most often positive, and there are very few negative ones. The inflammation goes away within two days.
