| 1 | H Pylori | Stomach and colon pain. Loose stools. Lose of appetite. Sickness. Depression. Anxiety. Aching legs and in particular groin and knee pain. Fatigue. | Side effects lasted 2 weeks after treatment and as i enter my 3rd week my stomach and colon are both inflammed and painful. I feel worse than before i began my treatment.

This is terrible. Headache, body aches, heart rate increase from 50s to 100 sitting, insomnia, severe anxiety, chills, wtf | Avoid like the plague | F | 37 | 1 days Unknown 1X day | 4/27/2021 | 4 | Andominopelvic abscess rupture | I'm not going to lie, this antibiotic is harsh. I have tried to take it before with bouts of diverticulitis but could never take it. I had no choice when I became septic from the abscess rupture while admitted to the hospital on IV drip of it. Weakness, back pain, loose and frequent stools, dark urine, extreme sleepiness, bitter taste, dizziness and overall just malaise. After 4 days of the IV along with Rocephine my WBC dropped from 23000 to 12000 and was released to continue to take for 7 more days with Cefdinir...allergic to Cipro. Got through it but it was harsh. | Take with a swig of milk and eat a little something with it. I also took probiotics 2 hours before or after first or last pill. I may have to have a bowel resection and will see if vancomycin is another option bc I have vestibular issues and Flagyl made it worse. I believe it was a necessary evil but at least it didn't hurt my stomach or make me nauseous. | F | 52 | 7 days 500 mg 3X day | 4/14/2021 | 4 | BV | Mental fog, worsening anxiety, bad thoughts, insomnia, bad taste in mouth, yeast infection, heartburn, feeling of being restless or uncomfortable in my own skin, overly emotional. | Worked to clear the infection.

Never again.will I go through it. | F | 63 | 1 days 2 grams 1X day | 3/19/2021 | 1 | BV | The first few days I had some stomach pain and loss of appetite. By day 5 I was having terrible headaches, extreme fatigue/exhaustion, mouth pain/sore tongue, and almost a lightheadedness or cognitive delay-like feeling. I didn't feel well at all. I took my last dose a day and a half ago and I feel somewhat better but the severe fatigue and brain fog/cognitive delay is still there. Please tell me this feeling will go away and I will feel normal again? | I will never be taking this drug again and I should have stuck to my original idea of getting an alternative before even taking it. | F | 36 | 7 days 500mg 2X day | 2/28/2021 | 1 | Diverticulitis | Stomach pain, heartburn, loss of appetite, anxiety, insomnia, bloating, back pain. | This medication is absolutely terrible.

Today on my 4th day on the drug I made the connection to Flagyl; my doctor also confirmed that the symptoms are most likely due to the medicine as it causes all kinds of side effects. The doctor advised that I take the 5th day of the medicine so BV would surely go away..

I am sure you will find the solution, no one wrote this before me. It differs from the rest of the reviews. I wrote the whole story but it exceeded 1500 characters so this site banned it so I'll cut it short You have to go to a jaw surgeon and not a neurosurgeon or a dentist or an orthopedist or an ophthalmologist or a doctor then I will tell you why Flagyl medicine causes all this suffering ... because it makes you Gnashing of your teeth while you sleep so all this comes and this affects the jaw which in turn affects the Eye, neck, ear and hip, lower back I am sure that every person who is still suffering after using Flagyl has a slipped jaw cartilage, he has to go to the clinic until his jaw returns as it was.
