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)

 1  Bacterial vaginitis 500 mg total taken twice a day. On day 5 and I’m miserable. Itching and burning around vagina, tingling feet and back of legs. After day 3 I awoke in the middle of the night with a pounding headache that remained for 36 hours. Headache Most painful when upright. Immediately after taking the evening dose on day 4 I vomited. Doctor suggested Motrin, hydration and rest. I did so and now on the evening of day 5 I am having severe anxiety that feels what I can only describe as a mild panic attack. I hope there is another solution for the bacterial vaginosis F 28 5 days

 1  BV Nausea, diarrhea and constipation interchangeably, upset stomach, pelvic twinges, cramping, vaginal burning & itching, headache, the worst anxiety I’ve ever had. I am on day 4 of these pills 3x/day and I don’t know how much longer I can hang in there taking them. It’s been miserable to say the least. I feel out of it the entire day and it’s getting worse as the days go on. Last night I was on the verge of a panic attack and this morning as soon as I opened my eyes my anxiety was already crippling. Please, take anything else if at all possible. F 29 7 days

Do not recommend. I can deal with the gastrointestinal side effects but I am extremely concerned with these chest pains, fast heart rate, and anxiety. It's alarming.

 1  Bacterial Vaginitis Itching and burning in my nether region. Not to mention, dark urine AND painful urination. I was irritable, was just completely out of it all the time, and could not concentrate to save my life. Also, I was very dizzy throughout the day. If there is an alternative, TAKE THAT! This drug may cure infection well, but the side effects are just awful. F 29 3 days

 4  Diarrhea Anxiety, fatigue, dizziness, frequent urination, gross taste in my mouth (not specifically metallic just gross. Water helps get rid of that. I found that eating at least a granola bar before the morning dose helped. It helped with the diarrhea, which I’m 99% sure was caused by Giardia, despite a negative stool sample. The side effects are weird but not detrimental. I lost 15 pounds with my illness and I’m finally gaining weight back. Excited for the side effects to wear off so I can get back to “normal”.

 1  BV Burning skin, burning vagina, shortness of breath, tingling in legs First night I took it I thought my skin felt dry and itchy. I usually take a sleep aid and that night I took the olly sleep aide with It. Immediately felt a heavy chest and shortness of breath. I had stomach issues the first day but i was able to make that better with a bigger meal. The worse part of this is the shortness of breath. I had to stop after day 5. That last dose, in the middle of the night I had to pee often, burning on the outside of vagina, burning on the back of my head, skin itchy, anxiety etc. The day after that I’m still Having shortness of breath. I hope this goes away. I called the dr she said to stop meds but my infection could come back. If you have had this and it got better please email me. I’m freaking out. F 33 7 days

 1  Bacterial Anxiety, shakiness, weakness/numbness in legs, unsteadiness, nausea, spinning Took two pills in one day. Started off feeling nauseous after the second pill. I was ready to go to bed and suddenly felt an uncomfortable weight in my legs. Then I started to feel anxious. I started to sweat but I was cold and could not stop shaking. I went to the bathroom thinking I might puke and my legs were so heavy. I was very shaky and unsteady. My bf was really concerned because I haven’t been like that before. I then read the side effects it can have and apparently this is all fairly common? Which is bad. I was able to finally fall asleep with some comforting from my bf. If he wasn’t there, I would have probably been up all night with the symptoms. I think I will call my doctor and see if I can get on something else because I don’t want this to continue. It felt like a bad trip or something. Don’t take this if you can help it. Never had such a bad reaction to a drug. F 19 0 days

 1  Chlamydia Horrendous metallic taste when taking the tablet and it remained throughout the entire time. Extreme nausea and vomiting, stomach pain, loss of appetite, feelings of unreality alternating with panic attacks. I cannot believe doctors prescribe this poison to their patients! I have never been so sick and felt so out of control with my body as I did when taking this poison. I have to believe that in 2019, someone could produce a drug with like effectiveness but does not damage its victims physically, mentally and emotionally. F 30 10 days

Almost immediately after the first dose I got a dull, persistent headache. Later followed stomach pain, extreme fatigue, the horrible taste in my mouth, loss of appetite and a sense of depression and anxiety. I would never want to be on this med again. I st ill have 5 days f my 10 day course to go and I honestly dont know if I can stand it. F 44 10 days

 1  Cdiff This antibiotic caused numbness in my arms and legs, severe anxiety, panic attacks, headache, blurred vision. Extreme weakness. I was a active 49 year old. Within 6 days everything changed. Called Dr office and was told to stop taking immediately but absolutely no concern for what it did to me. I now have two problems. I still have cdiff and neaurological symptoms. Never take this drug if there's a alternative. Not worth the risk. 49 6 days
