RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR FLAGYL | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
3 | bacterial vaginosis | Nausea, diarrhea, chest and limb heaviness, headache, light sinsitivity, drowsiness, anxiety, putrid taste in mouth | F | 26 | 7 days | 7/11/2013 | 4 | ulcerative colitis | Bad Taste in my mouth, severe abdominal pain, extremely loose bowels, no appetite, nausea | This is my first day w/o taking Flagyl. I feel better already. I really thought I had something more serious than a flare-up in my colon. I was sick for over a month. Believe me it no way to live. | F | 66 | 10 days 3X day | 7/10/2013 | 4 | Cdiff | I am a doc and I got cdiff. While the cdiff knocked me down I have no doubt the flagyl decreases activity tolerance. Also brown urine, bitter taste, and maybe some depression. | M | 35 | 2 weeks 500 tid | 7/2/2013 | 3 | BV | Dry Mouth and VERY bad taste in mouth that would last for hours. Nothing got rid of the bad taste ... No sleep at night .......bad gas! That's about it-I did not like it, but it got rid of the infection - thankfully. I would not want to take it again. | F | 30 | 7 days 500mg 2X day | 6/20/2013 | 1 | I have been taking this medicine for 3 days and it is not helping with what it was prescribed for and I have been in bed vomiting ever since I started it! I'm supposed to take it 3 times a day and I'm lucky to get it down twice a day! When u read the side effects they aren't rare... It will Definetly make u have all of them :( | F | 34 | 10 days 500mg | 6/19/2013 | 1 | Giardia | This is definitely the worst thing I have ever put in my body. I read about some of the side effects before taking this, but assumed these were probably rare scenarios and not the norm... nope, just 6 hours after my first dosage I started to feel extreme nausea and spent the rest of the night projectile vomiting. I'm extremely lethargic now, my appetite has been suppressed, and as long as this drug remains in my system I continue to feel nauseous and have feelings of vomiting with anything I eat and the smell of most foods. I have already called my doctor and requested a different medicine. Beware. | M | 28 | 7 days 250MG 3X day | 6/6/2013 | 2 | Bacterial Vaginosis | Severe abdominal cramping accompanied by loose stool, agitation/mood swings, and most disturbingly, short term memory loss. Just tonight broke out in hives. Not sure if its related but sure is coincidental. I've taken alot of antibiotics in my day and never experienced side effects like these. I have only two days left so I guess I will continue but this stuff seems a little scary. | F | 35 | 7 days 500 mg 2X day | 6/2/2013 | 2 | BV | Just took my second dose at the end of my 3rd day. Makes me very tired. I'm about to pass out. Also had a sore throat starting my 2nd day taking this. Some nausea. Hoping I can make it through the 7 day treatment. | F | 34 | 3 days 500 mg 2X day | 6/1/2013 | 1 | dental infection | Not sure if these are side effects or if I'm just going to die soon. Sounds so melodramatic but honestly I've never felt so bad while taking a Rx. Neck/head pains, weakness all over, dizzy, anxiety, loss of appetite, back pain, nausea, a general feeling of organ failure. Can't seem to do anything without running out of breath or energy. After this I will never take my health for granted. Preventative measures all the way. If I survive, that is!!! :( | F | 41 | 7 days 500mg x 4 | 6/1/2013 | 1 | BV | Severe headache !!! Neck stiffness, loose bowels. It tastes nasty | I was actually going to ER before I found this site!!! I never have severe headaches and thought this might be an aneurysm !!! This med is terrible I'm not taking another pill. I'm very dissatisfied that my Dr. Prescribed this med | F | 42 | 4 days 500 2X day | 5/29/2013 | 1 | C diff | This is by far the worst that I have ever felt in my life! This drug is awful! Feeling flu like symptoms, anxiety, dizziness, absolutely horrendous! POISON | F | 33 | 3 days | 5/24/2013 | 1 | Bacterial Infection | Hives, head and body aches and pains (felt like lightening bolts shooting across my entire head and body). | After second dose I had a full blown allergic reaction. Hives, striking pains (felt like lightening bolts) throughout my head and body. I took Benadryl and the hives and body pains went away. Not the headaches. I've had headaches every day since that horrible life-altering day. That was 9 months ago. Drs can't find anything wrong. As far as I'm concerned, I will live with this condition for the rest of my life. The severity of my reaction is very rare. Nonetheless, this med is evil. | 40 | 1 days not sure 2X day | 5/19/2013 | 5 | Trichomoniasis | Basically none. | This antibiotic worked really well for me. I was dreading taking it after reading all the horror stories but I can honestly say, I had basically zero side effects. I didn't drink any alcohol whilst taking it of course and I was feeling MUCH better after only two days of taking it. I hope I don't have to take it again but it was very helpful to me and worked like a dream. Admittedly it tastes nasty but lets face it, we don't take medication because we like the taste do we? | M | 37 | 5 days 400mg 3X day | 5/17/2013 | 1 | BV | Bad taste, severe headache, nauseus,vomitting and tastes horrible...Metrogel is an insertable that is a million times better. | F | 44 | 1 days 500mg | 5/16/2013 | 1 | My system is so messed up. I have had a vaginal infection for almost 4 years now and I know it's because of over-prescription of this nasty drug. I am seeing a naturopath because MD's don't understand this systemic infection I have. I am spending tons of money trying to regain my health and am on such a strict diet I can't eat like a normal person. I think this drug should be banned as well. It is nothing short of POISON! | F | 42 | 90 days 1X day | 5/8/2013 | 1 | To kill the yeast infection | I bleeded | F | 22 | 3 days 30mg | 5/7/2013 | 3 | Bacterial infection | severe stomach cramps one day after I stopped taking the pill, loose stools on the day after and diarrehea on the 4th day after I finished the perscription. | F | 29 | 500 2X day | 5/3/2013 | 2 | Pelvic Inflammatory Disease | First side effect is I felt like Im going crazy, like Im going to die everytime there is panic attack, fast heartbeat rate, so depressed, loss of appetite, always tired, the urge of vommitting and pooing, bloatedness and confused to whether its the symptom im feeling or just the side effect | I never wanna take this drug anymore.. Ever! But im gonna finish it coz its needed. Its not even strong to kill bacteria but strong enough to knock you down. I hate this med. worst feeling i ever had in a medicine | F | 28 | 7 days 500mg 2X day | 4/28/2013 | 1 | c diff | The bitter taste of course. Severe abdominal pain, back pain, chest pain,nausea, and shortness of breath where like I can't get a deep breath. The fatigue and tiredness was unreal. Hardly had energy to walk to bathroom.It did help my diarrhea from 20 times a day to twice. I would not recommend this to anyone. I have been off the medicine for 5 days and am still having abdominal pain fatigue and shortness of breath. Dr said it wasn't the med. but I 100% disagree especially since I found this wed site and see what so many others went through. I have had all kinds of test to check why the pain and shortness of breath is still here everything comes back normal. But I wonder if I will ever be normal again. | The flagyl helped my c diff but what I've been through is unreal. I will never take it again. | F | 59 | 10 days 500mg 3X day | 4/19/2013 | 3 | Diverticulitis | I am on the fifth of seven days of this drug. Initially experienced no side effects but, starting on the third day, the need to urinate increased significantly. And, starting today, I have experienced dizziness; nausea; pins/needles and aches in arms, shoulders and legs; and mild headache. While I know it is unwise to stop taking an antibiotic before the prescribed dosage is complete, I do not want to continue taking this drug. | F | 60 | 7 days 500 2X day | 4/13/2013 |
