Metronidazole — All Brands in Nigeria

We list 115 Metronidazole products from the NAFDAC Greenbook — Nigeria's official register of approved products — of which 69 have a currently active registration, including 11 combination products that pair Metronidazole with other ingredients. They are produced by manufacturers including Afrab-Chem, Auscel Laboratories, Avro Pharma, Bioraj Pharmaceuticals, Blueworld Pharmaceuticals, Foods and Cosmetics, among others. Combination products, and registrations the Greenbook currently lists as inactive, are clearly marked — Greenbook listings can lag renewals, so always confirm the number printed on the pack. Because it is drawn from the live register, this is far more complete than a typical brand list.

44 companies hold active Metronidazole registrations in the NAFDAC Greenbook. They include Emzor Pharmaceutical Industries, Bioraj Pharmaceuticals, Dana Pharmaceuticals, Fidson Healthcare. The "applicant" recorded in the Greenbook is the registration holder — usually the manufacturer or its Nigerian representative — and the full table above shows the applicant for every registered product.

Each brand here holds a NAFDAC registration in the Greenbook. However, counterfeiters sometimes copy a genuine NAFDAC number onto a fake product, so always confirm that the brand, manufacturer (applicant), and strength printed on the pack match the record before you buy, and purchase only from licensed pharmacies.

Metronidazole brand prices in Nigeria vary by brand, strength, and where you buy it — imported brands are often more expensive than locally manufactured ones. Confirm the current price with a licensed pharmacy, and see the price guide on the main Metronidazole page.

Well-known locally manufactured Metronidazole brands include Loxagyl, Flagyl Suspension, Caregyl. Imported brands include Flagyl (France). Many more locally made brands appear in the full registry table above — locally manufactured products carry NAFDAC numbers with the 04- prefix, while imported ones typically use A4-.
