| 1 | Infection | Anxiety, Depression, loss of appetite, blurred vision, insomnia | Don't touch this medication if you have suffered from anxiety in the past.. It will bring it all back | F | 28 | 3 days 400 | 1/18/2015 | 5 | Bacteria vaginosis | I felt extremely nauseated the first few days. Ialmost thought i was the virgin Mary and God miraculously impregnated me. I was beat. Im on my 6th day taking the medicine with one more day left, and have been sleeping like the dead. Everytime i wake up i fall back asleep. I can't really complain because it relieved me of that horrible smell that comes with BV after about 2 days of taking it. I mean you cant always win win win. So i'm losing out on my daily activities by sleeping in because of the medicine, but im extremely satisfied with the results so far as to my healing, and killing of that deadly horrible smell. | F | 28 | 6 days 500mg | 1/14/2015 | 3 | diverticulitis | Nausea, headache,complete loss of appetite,backache,diarrhoea,disorientated feeling. | On my last day on this med thank god | M | 72 | 7 days 400mg x3 | 1/13/2015 | 4 | Gardnerella | Fatigue, vivid dreams, drowsy | I don't know if this thing is supposed to put me right to sleep or not, but I sleep like a baby on this thing and throughout the course of the day all I can think about is sleeping. I had problems falling asleep before, I'd get about 25 hours total of sleep at night in a week. With this, it's been something ridiculous like 70 hours, and that doesn't count the napping after my first dose of the day. Of all the side effects I could be having, I'm not entirely displeased. All this sleeping isn't good for my productivity, though. I feel like a zombie. | F | 19 | 7 days 500 MG 2X day | 1/9/2015 | 4 | Tooth infection | Dark urine (leaflet States this is normal and not a concern). Mild nausea. Difficulty sleeping. Lethargy. | F | 31 | 7 days 400 | 1/8/2015 | 1 | Bv | And pain, tired, anxiety, back pain, dreaming vividly, ear plugged, slightly depressed, lots of nausea, urgent yellow/orange stool, dark urine, spacey | Had to take three times, first 7 days (bv came back after 49 hours), this time for 7 days but can't make it all 7. Quitting after 5 ! Lower abd cramping and spacey feeling too much!! Going to OB tomorrow for alternative. For sure avoid I the future!!! | F | 42 | 7 days 500 | 1/7/2015 | 4 | D. Fragilis Parasite | No side effects experienced. | Was very concerned about side effects, as I had previously reacted badly to antibiotics and I was warned that I would feel terrible taking metronidazole. I made sure to get lots of sleep and was on a healthy paleo diet (cutting out grains which in my case fed the parasite) and didn't feel any adverse effects. Make sure to repopulate the gut with good bacteria afterwards (heavy duty probiotics or 24 hour homemade live yoghurts as the supermarket drinks aren't robust enough), as it'll wipe out everything. | F | 29 | 10 days 400 2X day | 1/3/2015 | 1 | Gum infection | Breathlessness, racing heart, vivid dreams, unpleasant thoughts, nausea, insomnia | F | 35 | 5 days 400mg 3X day | 1/3/2015 | 3 | throat infection | Cant sleep,metallic taste in mouth, food tastes different, nightmares | F | 41 | 10 days 400 | 12/31/2014 | 1 | 2nd course following c.diff | Fatigue,nausea and stomach pain. Hot sweats. Cold shivering. Feel achy,tired and extremely unwell. | I contasted c.diff in hospital and took metronidazole for 10days.200mg 3times daily. Symptoms returned.Now on 2nd course but 400mg x3daily. Debilitating side effects.Told by doctor that "spoors" from c.diff can take up to 12months to clear the system. Dreading continuing this medication. | F | 79 | 5 days 400mg x3da | 12/27/2014 | 1 | 2nd course following c.diff | Fatigue,nausea and stomach pain. Hot sweats. Cold shivering.

Did clear up original symptoms but side effects were far worse than any symptom I started with. I did not drink while on the medication, took it as directed, used probiotics during it, and still found it unbearable. | F | 23 | 7 days 500 mg 2X day | 12/22/2014 | 1 | Gum infection | Getting extremely hot,blurred vision, insomnia, heartburn, crying all the time, constipation. Nausea. Bloating | Would not take this medication again! Thought the menopause were bad enough with the hot flushes,but this made them ten times worse! Not had heartburn for years until I started taking this drug. Thank god I was only supposed to take it for three days, I've only one left,but won't be taking it! Plus I couldn't stop crying! I'll never take this again! | F | 59 | 3 days 200mg 3X day | 12/21/2014 | 3 | bv | Fatigue, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, leg pains, spacey feeling. | I am taking it for bv and it is almost not worth it because of side effects. I only gave it a three because it has cleared up the infection so fast when nothing else has helped. | F | 17 | 7 days 500 | 12/18/2014 | 1 | tooth extraction | Ive had tooth removed, amoxicillin trihydrate ca 500mg & metronidazole ta 400mg to take for 7days. I dont have an abscess. | Familiar with amoxicillin but not metronidazole..so I looked it up, im not taking that medicine! No way! Not after what ive read. So thank you all for sharing. Hope you all are recovering well. as for physicians They need to rethink about metronidazole & who's taking it. | F | 42 | 7 days 400mg | 12/18/2014 | 2 | BV | Numbness in right side of face and ear, very panicky, also warm feeling on the right side of face and ear. | F | 21 | 7 days 500MG 2X day | 12/17/2014 | 4 | dental infection | Stomach cramps, brain fog, very tired, nausea, just overall feel like crap. I have 4 more days of taking this. | Thought I hate the side effects, it does seem to be helping my infection. | F | 37 | 3 days 500 mg | 12/14/2014 | 1 | Stomach bacterial | i stopped this pill yesterday and I am still having all these side effects.i can't sleep,metal taste,panic attacks,cold/hot,bad dreams bad thoughts crazy feeling please help tell me when it will stop ? | F | 33 | 2 days 500mg | 12/11/2014 | 1 | tooth extracted then infection | Was prescribed 400mg 3xday following infection following tooth extraction. Im 5ft2 weighing 9 half stone. Not sure if this dose way too much but two days in started with a rash on my feet. Woke up covered in itcgy rash. Stiff neck. Headache slurring and stuttering my words unable to get words out and feeling like I was loosing the plot and confused. Generally felt very unwell. Went hospital where had my bloods ecg ct scan which all came back normal. They wanted to keep me overnight but I was not in my normal frame of mind and took myself home. Silly I know but now resting at home. Head still strange but stopped tablets and will never take again. Im wondering if I have developed enchetholapthy even though the ct scan came back ok? Any opinions please? | Will never touch this drug again and professionals should not give it out so easily. | F | 34 | 2 days 400mg tds | 12/11/2014 | 1 | BV | Mood swings, nausea, headache, hot/cold flashes, dizziness, insomnia. | I'm so glad I came across this and see I'm not the only one losing my mind on this. I'm 3 days into this antibiotic and am ready to crawl out of my skin. I suffer from moderate-severe depression and anxiety already, and this makes me feel like I did before I started Wellbutrin and Valium. I see my doctor tomorrow, so will insist on a different medication. I am hoping only 5 pills won't have the long term effects as others have stated. | F | 26 | 10 days 500 mg | 12/2/2014 |
