How Metro PV Ointment works

Metro PV Ointment is a combination of two medicines: Metronidazole Topical and Povidone Iodine. Metronidazole Topical is an antibiotic which kills bacteria and other harmful microorganisms by damaging their DNA. Povidone Iodine is an antiseptic applied on skin which is infected or is likely to get infected. It slowly releases iodine which kills or prevents the growth of these microorganisms.
