| 1 | Wisdom Tooth Infection | I feel like my gum is pushing my teeth out, no sleep and can't stay still. | Don't take this thing, it's a nightmare. | M | 27 | 2 days 200 3X day | 5/31/2012 | 3 | amoebiasis | Sour taste, upset stomach, always hungry feeling, exhaustion, dry mouth | F | 28 | 10 days 750 mg | 5/30/2012 | 3 | Dry Socket (wisdom tooth removal) | Extreme nausea, stomach ache, complete loss of appetite, insomnia, mild headaches, extreme fatigue, dizziness, anxious feelings. Generally a hungover feeling ever since I started taking the drug. I stopped taking the drugs two days ago and still have all the symptoms just on a minor scale. Its a drug that works but the side effects maybe aren't worth it. | I had to take this medication after developing a dry socket after wisdom tooth removal. It stopped an infection from occurring but I have never felt so sick in my life! Make sure you definitely need to take this medication before trying!!! | F | 22 | 7 days 200mg 3X day | 5/30/2012 | 1 | Cervicitis (supposedly) | DIZZINESS! About the 3rd day on it i began getting so dizzy it made me want to cry ;( i quit taking it and i wont take it again. It wasnt just a little dizzy it was the whole room spinning kind of dizzy. | F | 22 | 7 days | 5/29/2012 | 1 | BV | Sharp stomach cramps, sore eyes, insomnia, depression, anxiety, paranoia, headaches, dark urine, loss of appetite | After day 4 I had to go to the ER because I couldn't stop crying I felt anxious and nervous. They asked me to stop taking this and gave me something to relax and sleep. | F | 22 | 7 days 500mg 2X day | 5/29/2012 | 3 | Wisdom tooth infection | Ringing ears, exhaustion, insomnia, palpitations, headaches, anxiety, stomach cramps... Every time I drop off to sleep I feel my heart is stopping and I jump awake. 6th day of 7 today, I'm going back to the dentist to beg to stop taking it. Horrendous!! | F | 28 | 7 days 200mg x 3 | 5/24/2012 | 4 | BV | Dry mouth, metallic taste some days, just nasty others, uneasy stomach, mild headaches, darker urine, anxiety, felt very out of it and all around unwell by the last few days. It did clear up the infection. If I had to take it again I reluctantly would. | F | 29 | 7 days 500 MG, 2x | 5/21/2012 | 3 | BV | After reading these reviews I was very apprehensive about taking such a large dose! Apart from feeling a little 'out of it' I didn't experience any of the nasty side effects others have! Don't think it has cured my BV though so back to the docs! | F | 25 | 1 days 4x 500mg | 5/17/2012 | 1 | bv | this has been the worst anibiotic ever! since day 1 ive had sour stomach, vomiting, lower back pain, sleeping horrible, extreme fatigue and that awful metalic taste in my mouth. Definitely will not take again!!! | F | 31 | 6 days 500mg 2x | 5/15/2012 | 3 | Infected tooth | Drug very good at attacking the pain problem in the tooth and gave relief in a few hours. I had dark urine but not for long. Did suffer from increased urination. On day 4 I started to suffer from a bloated stomach then pain in my ovary region. I then suffered a lot of stomach pain. It felt as if I have been very constipated but I was not. I have the furriest tongue ever, most uncomfortable.I have a great feeling of pressure in my pelvic region. I finished the tablets two days ago and things seem to be slowly getting back to normal. | F | 66 | 7 days 200 3X day | 5/14/2012 | 1 | tooth ache | stomace ace, head ace, very dark urine | This drug should be scrapped. | M | 60 | 5 days 200 3X day | 5/9/2012 | 4 | BV | Dark urine. Overall it helped me a lot! I did not experience anything side effects just the dark urine. Yes the medicine is gross, I had a bad experience for the first time. | F | 19 | 7 days 500mg | 5/3/2012 | 3 | Diverticulitis | VERY strong Metallic Taste. No alcohol during course of medication!!! | F | 41 | 14 days 250 mg 3X day | 5/1/2012 | 3 | BV | Severe Headache, eye sockets aching, stiff neck, swollen glands, flu like symptons, night sweats, heart palpitations, panicky, tearful, sinus pain | I was prescribed this drug during a miscarriage, after a swab revealed BV. On top of going through the emotional and physical pain of that, I have also had to suffer these grim side effects. Grateful for this site. I had had no side effects of BV and would not have know that I had it. so have no idea if this drug has actually helped or not! I will be finishing the course of tablets though. | F | 36 | 8 days 400mg 2X day | 4/28/2012 | 3 | Tooth infection | Depression, feeling as if nothing in the world matters (not at all like me), nausea, mood swings, loss of apetite and loss of will to do anything at all, tiredness without the ability of sleeping, headache, tingling in the body | Ok, so my dentist prescribed metronidazole because of the severe pains in my tooth that I've been getting non stop, it hasnt really done that much of a difference I think there were more side effects rather than any help it had, it did numb the pain slightly but its still there | F | 18 | 5 days 200 3X day | 4/25/2012 | 1 | giardia | Nausea, exhaustion but unable to sleep, brain fog, emotional, cramps like period pain but no menstruation, darker urine. | horrid horrid drug, I should have been briefed on just how nasty it is. surely there's something else out there that can do the job. | F | 42 | 3 days 2g 1X day | 4/25/2012 | 1 | BV | dizzy, short of breath, anxious, feeling sad and depressed, couldnt think straight, headache, exhausted all day long even with 8-9 hours of sleep, hard to keep my eyes opene, chest pains.. DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG! i have never experience anything like this in my life and never want to ever again | F | 25 | 7 days 500 2X day | 4/25/2012 | 3 | C.diff | Nausea and vomiting, unable to sleep although very tired, horrible metallic taste | Today is day 7 of 10. I'm not altogether sure if it is helping because the side effects are so harsh :( This is a strong drug and I do not want to take it again. | F | 32 | 10 days 500 3X day | 4/24/2012 | 1 | divoticulitus & later tooth abcess | dizzy woolly, brain fog, rash on forehead, exhausted, tired all the time bloated tingling on front of legs below knees and back of hands. Panic attacks on waking diarrhoea | told by my neuro specialist this drug has caused a blip in my brain and to try healing to restore brain back to normal. Have done this but the healing only lasts about 3 days when all the above symptoms go completely but return so this drug causes serious brain damage and stomach upset. As I had been given this antibiotic previously for 6 years and went tired but drs thought I had ME, how wrong they were not associating the drug with my condition. I still have tiredness, exhaustion, tingling on shins some 3 years later!! Going to healers has cured rash, bloating, nightmares, but what about the remainder? I do keep positive thoughts but I am still ill all these years later. THIS DRUG SHOULD BE BANNED..there are other antibiotics not so dangerous. please stop allowing it on the market too many people are tired exhausted etc for life because of it. Is there anything plus 'healing' which sorts the mind back to normal - but not drugs perhaps it is not suitabe for older people either | F | 73 | 6 days 200 mg 3X day | 4/20/2012 | 1 | BV | dry mouth, drinking lots, urinating lots. crying for no reason, horrid thoughts, felt like life is not worth living, feel like i could kill someone one minute, fatigued the next. palpitations. | i am just so grateful for this site, thought i would end up commiting suicide and i didnt know why. didnt realise it could be the medication until my daughter, who is a dental nurse, told me about the possible side effects. i am sure there must be some other medication and that this should not be prescribed | F | 52 | 5 days 400 3X day | 4/15/2012 |
