| 5 | CrohnsDisease | Helps with Diarrhea but sometime it causes Diarrhea too. No mental side effects like with other antibiotics. | M | 48 | 1 years 500 2X day | 11/3/2021 | 5 | BV and Trichomonas | Fatigue, Nausea, Sweating as soon as I take the pill, and Body Rash. My meds this time around did not have a metallic taste. I could definitely feel much relieved after the third day of taking them. | F | 34 | 7 days 500 2X day | 12/17/2020 | 5 | Ulceritic Colitus | I just didn't feel good. Diarrhea. Dizziness. Blurry Vision. Constant headache that I couldn't get rid of. Sleeplessness. I toughed it out because I needed it. But, I had a really hard time with this antibiotic. | F | 49 | 7 days | 2/2/2020 | 5 | Chronic recurrent BV | I had a high feeling when taking this in the past but, this time I feel great. I think the issues people are having is not being aware that you can CV consume ZERO alcohol. This includes extracts and per the new labeling AVOID PROPYLENE GLYCOL as well. It is in food and cosmetics. These cause dangerous side effects and illness. | F | 42 | 4 days 500MG | 6/19/2019 | 5 | C-diff | Fatigue. Insomnia. sore tongue. Dizzy. Headache. No appetite | This is the worse med I have ever taken but hopefully it got rid of c-diff since this bacteria is getting resistant to meds | F | 70 | 2 weeks 500 mg 3x | 3/14/2017 | 5 | Bacterial infection | This is the worst drug ever. I have 3 days left in the treatment and I don't know if I can continue. I feel fatigue, nauseous, confused at times, a horrible taste in my mouth and I am starting to develop a horrible hurt burn. I feel scare after reading all of the horrible reviews. | F | 51 | 6 days | 2/9/2017 | 5 | Bv | 1 days | 11/29/2016 | 5 | bacterial infection | Tingling in my feet and fingers. Dry mouth, severe head pressure, ringing in ears, neck pain, soreness in legs and feet. | By the fifth day i felt stroke like symptoms. Stop meds and called my dr. This is day 7 and 2 days wo taking it and still have what feels like a severe brain swelling that comes and goes through the day and night. Swollen joints in hands, numbness in feet and hands, very depressed which is not my usual outlook. Having late night panic attacks and tingling in my face and lips. | F | 40 | 5 days 500mg | 8/12/2016 | 5 | I have C Difficolitis | Insomnia, extremely painful stomach ache, moodiness,and depression.I understand that with the C Diff theres alot of pain because I've had it off and on for years. I've already had the Fecal Transplant. But shortly after I took the Flagyl I felt way worse. How long yo these side effects last??? | I am positive the pain is from Flagyl because I've had the C Diff before and never felt like this . Any suggestions anyone??? I am also takinh liquid Vancomycin. | F | 55 | 1 days 500 mg | 3/3/2016 | 5 | C-Diff | Frequent need to urinate. Dark colored urination. Very tired and can sleep for 12 hours. Anxiety and emotional; crying often. | Took Clindamycin HCL for a tooth extraction/infection and developed C-Diff (which was an awful experience). My GP prescribed Flagyl to fix the extreme stomach/intestinal problems. Within 72 hours, Flagyl helped tremendously. No more stomach cramps/pains and I finally stopped going to the bathroom every 30 minutes. Was told to eat yogurt. Glad to know others are emotional; thought I was crazy. DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL while taking Flagyl! My GP warned me to not even use listerine. Also, after you are done taking this medication, it is still in your system. Make sure to ask your doctor when it is okay to drink an alcoholic beverage again. | F | 30 | 7 days 500 3X day | 11/6/2015 | 5 | Infection prevention for an open fr | Dark urine, very bad fatigue, dizziness, confusion/trouble in remembering things, slurring of speech. | Prescribed by my maxillofacial surgeon prior to surgery to prevent an infection in my jaw bone as I had an open fracture. I was on penicillin also. For the 3 hours after taking a dose ensure you are not doing anything other than lying in bed or on the couch. The fatigue is debilitating as is the dizziness when you stand up. | M | 18 | 7 days 3 per day | 8/28/2015 | 5 | Parapharyngeal abscess | A little more tired than usual, but nothing a regular afernoon 30-min nap couldn't fix. Other than that: none | M | 22 | 1 months 500 mg 3X day | 8/7/2015 | 5 | giardia lamblia | Briefly describe the latest side effects you experienced. Last entry: back pain, chest pain, fast heartbeat, muscle pain,pharyngitis, problems with digestion, fever 36,8 - 37,3, decreased vision, Agitation, dizziness, stomach pain.. the symptomes are like the waves ... 2-3 days i had no pain .. 2 other days i had pain. | now i am not infected with giardia lamblia, but i am still having the flagyl side effects. it have been past 5 months and still today I have muscle pain ( back pain),pharyngitis and fever 36,8 - 37,3, please contact me if anyone is having the same experience [email protected] please if anyone has an information for about how long last the side effects in a maxiumum of time contact me | F | 29 | 10 days 2x 250 3X day | 7/15/2015 Patient History | 5 | Bv | I've had no side rffects whatsoever. | The taste is horrible and stays in the back of my throat. But that is the worst I've experienced with this rx. That and not being able to drink while on it. | F | 33 | 7 days 400 | 7/4/2015 | 5 | diverticulitis | I had to take Flagyl previously for suspected Diver, so was familiar with the awful side effects. So when I was diagnosed and had to take it I asked my doc for Zofran. I really didn't want to take it as I was already on Cipro, Flagyl and Advil. But, day 4 I knew that if I didn't I was going to vomit. It helped a lot with the nausea and anxiety I have with Flagyl. Previously I was prescribed only 7 days of Flagyl, but this time 10. I am going to go 7 as I can't stand the thought of another 3 more days. Awful drug, but helps. | F | 56 | 10 days 500 3X day | 7/4/2015 | 5 | Bacterial Vaginosis/Yeast Infection | I didn't have any troublesome side effects you guys! But also everyone body reacts to it different I read way to many reviews on this when I received the polls but the only problem I had was dry mouth. Boyyyyy, was I thirsty. | BEWARE:antibiotics can cause yeast infections now I'm stuck with my yeast infection(my original one)and I think I may have oral thrush as I just stopped the pills yesterday my throat worsened. I'm visiting the doctor today to see. But I do have all the symptoms so...hopefully I'll just get more Diflucan and be successful with it! | F | 17 | 7 days 500 | 6/30/2015 | 5 | bv | nauseated,dark urine | it really works,but please be careful with alcohol. not just drinking it but using it also can make you sick. Be aware of your soap,lotion, mouthwash things like that. once I payed attention to that I was ok. | F | 35 | 7 days 500 | 6/19/2015 | 5 | bacteria vaginitis | A bad taste was left in my mouth for about two or three days, and dark urine. | I took this medication in a four pills, and one dosage. I was given it for the bacteria vaginitis', which the side effects where a loud horrible smell,gross and smelly discharge, itching with irritation and painful sex. That alone was way worst that the side effects of metallic taste, dark urine or the other things that i read may happen. It work and the risk out weighted the complaints. The pharmacist suggested to take with a meal before bedtime with lots of water to help flush my system.It helped me. | F | 40 | 1 days | 6/12/2015 | 5 | osteomyletis of the jaw | Anxiety, nauseous, dizziness,numbness ~ tingling in arm and leg, feeling cold, insomnia, metallic taste in mouth...loose stools all day, every day. Feeling depressed. | I have been taking Flagg twice a day every day for 4 months now along with biaxin..It has helped the very severe infection in my jaw which I still need surgery for. Even with the side effects I'm going to take it as long as my Dr has me on it...the pus pouring out of my jaw was worse! Thankfully the side effects come and go so I have days where I feel good and days when I feel horrible. | F | 57 | 4 months 500 mg | 3/11/2015 | 5 | BV | Burning vagina | Other than the above side effect, it was worth it! It cleared up my infection. | F | 29 | 7 days 500mg | 3/1/2015 |
FLAGYL (METRONIDAZOLE): Metronidazole is an antibiotic that is used to treat a wide variety of infections. It works by stopping the growth of certain bacteria and parasites. This antibiotic treats only certain bacterial and parasitic infections. It will not work for viral infections (such as common cold, flu). Using any antibiotic when it is not needed can cause it to not work for future infections. Metronidazole may also be used with other medications to treat certain stomach/intestinal ulcers caused by a bacteria (H. pylori). (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)
