What is Roza Gel 

Roza gel 30g is an antibiotic medicine that is used on the skin.

It effectively treats certain skin disorders known as Rosacea, a type of adult acne.

This Gel helps in reducing Rosacea-related redness, swelling, and pimples.

Uses of Roza Gel 

It is prescribed to control the symptoms of Rosacea.

Rosacea is a skin condition that causes redness and pimples on the forehead, chin, cheeks, and nose.

Burning of the skin, redness on the face, dry skin, an enlarged nose, larger pores, bumps on your eyelids, and difficulties in seeing are some of its symptoms.

How Roza Gel works

This Gel contains the active ingredient Metronidazole.

Metronidazole belongs to the class of Antimicrobials known as Nitroimidazole Antimicrobials.

This medicine diffuses into bacteria and interacts with DNA.

Interacting with DNA suppresses protein synthesis and causes a loss of helical DNA shape and strand breaking.

Thus, leading to cell death and stopping bacterial growth.
