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  Hysterectomy Absolutely horrible drug. Didn't have infection but was given drug after surgery as preventative. Severe nausea, extreme anxiety, heart palpitations, blurred vision, dizziness. Doctor refused to change Rx to another one. Finally, I was told I should just stop taking it because it was 4 days after surgery and he said if it were going to get an infection, I already would have. I'm 2 days off the drug and still feel absolutely horrible. Even Zofran didn't help with nausea. Still have severe anxiety. Worst drug ever. I've had antibiotics before and never had bad reactions. Will never take Flagyl again! There was no way I could have taken this drug for the entire 7 days! Drug should be taken off the market. Too many adverse reactions from too many people. F 69 2 days

 1  BV SEVERE anxiety, constant racing thoughts, couldn't sleep, anytime I tried to fall asleep I'd wake up in a panic, palpitations, constant worried feeling, terrified to go to sleep, and overall just didn't feel right. I've taken this medication once in the past and had no issue. Shortly after taking this medication, this happened. It's the worst experience I've ever had. F 30 2 days

 1  Tooth infection Like many people have already said this antibiotic is awful. I had to stop my course early due to the bad side effects, such as random cramps in my feet, which was definitely triggered by the drugs. Besides that I got loss of appetite, severe anxiety and overwhelming sensations of fear and anxiety. Bear in mind I don't suffer from any of these normally so I know it is out of character for me to feel like this. I also felt very panicky, have had lots of brain fog as well as suffering from exhaustion, weakness and depression. I didn't feel and still don't feel myself after since 2 days of having stopped them. I'm hoping it will pass but it gives me relief that I know I'm not going crazy and that these symptoms are purely down to the antibiotics. I would never take these again and would opt for strong pain relief and only take this again if there was no other choice, absolute last resort! Don't take this drug if you can avoid it, it's truly awful! F 34 4 days

 1  BV Horrible drug, read the information before you take it. can cause irreversible brain and nerve damage. Doctors will never tell you this before they prescribe you this poison. 6 years after taking a few pills, my brains and nerves aren't better and the damage seems like it may be permanent. Who would have thought treating a simple infection could ruin my health perhaps forever. I had to quit my job, and mostly live at home because of how debilitating my neurological symptoms have been. a horrible nightmare that i wish i could wake up from F 36 6 days

 1  bacterial vaginosis This medication has ruined my health over the last 20 years. Lingering symptoms I still have include optic neuropathy, tendon pain, joint pain, extreme exhaustion, digestive issues, malaise, nausea, frequent migraines, head pressure, slurring/mixing up words, and feeling extremely unwell constantly. I went from a high achieving student with ambitions to someone who feels very unwell all the time constantly in pain. I have lived most of my life working part time or on disability because of how constantly unwell I feel. this is literal human poison and I wouldn't wish this nightmare on my very worst enemy. I took this medication years ago, before the internet was a popular place to look up side effects, and before they updated some of the new warning labels to include CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM LEISONS and neurotoxicity (brain damage, peripheral neuropathy) to the warning label. If you're here and thinking of taking this horrific antibiotic for some minor infection (or even worse for a misdiagnosis as many people have used it for) and you think it's a good idea, I don't know what to tell you. If you used this drug in recent years without researching it first, you are very foolish and irresponsible. Always research things before you take them, especially now that you have the internet at your fingertips! F 46 7 days

I called my pharmacist and was told to stop taking the medication. I was on day 2 of 7 -- there is no way I could have made it the full amount of time. I hope I feel better soon.
