Study design: experimental study. Place and duration: Jinnah University for Women, over six months Method: The brand Flagyl (metronidazole) 400 mg were purchased from the local pharmacies of Karachi (Pakistan) for the evaluation of dissolution profile in diverse medium. Results: The outcomes related to this research study are clearly showing that all the results come out within the specified limits of BP/USP which is not less 85 %. The results of one way Anova test between the groups and within the groups showing significant difference i.e. p value < 0.05.Multiple comparisons also performed by Turkey HSD and LSD test of standards with diverse dissolution mediums showing a significant difference between the medium i.e. p value <0.05.Conclusions: We concluded from our study that metronidazole is not contraindicated with milk, oil with gastric fluid
