METADOXIL 500MG TABLET belongs to the group of medicines known as antioxidants. It is primarily used to treat alcoholic fatty liver disease and alcohol intoxication (disturbance in mental function or behaviour during or after alcohol consumption). Alcoholic liver disease describes medical conditions and their corresponding symptoms which develop due to liver damage caused by alcohol misuse and abuse. When the disease arises, it may not lead to any symptoms in the early times until the individual’s liver has undergone widespread damage.
