 3  BV I'm only on day 3 (4 more days to go...ugh!). Really lethargic and have had non-stop headaches. Got really nauseus last night and thought I was going to vomit but it went away thankfully. To the people who say to the others below, you obviously didn't read the instructions...I have read the instructions thoroughly (they probably did too), some of us are just not as lucky as you to avoid the adverse reactions to this drug. I've been taking them with plenty of food and water and still don't feel great. But thank you to everyone who comments here because (even though I'm sorry you're all feeling bad too) it's nice to hear that others are experiencing the same things and it's not just me! :0) Didn't realize there was a gel option, would definitely try that instead next time!

 4  BV none. either you people are drinking alcohol, are allergic to it, or you're not reading the directions right. oh and maybe instead of complaining about it on the internet, call your doctor! duh. and if you look at the side effects A METALLIC TASTE IS ONE OF THEM. you tend to get bad tastes in your mouth anyway from uncoated pills...

 3  Pelvic Inflammatory Disease Diarrhea, anal bleeding, tingly hands and feet, anxiousness/moodiness, vomiting, headache, not being able to drink. Ive been a total bitch for the past few weeks and now i realize why. Also, I just cant calm down for the life of me. I have had diarrhea so badly that I use the bathroom every hour. Not convenient for a college kid. It has, however, stopped the pain in my abdomen and the other bad symptoms related to PID. F 20 14 days

 4  stomach infection Took two pills daily and by the 2nd day was experiencing extreme lethargy. Wasn't motivated, lack of energy, could lay in bed and stare at my ceiling for hours. Sunny days seemed like rainy days. Felt like the world was ending. By the 4th night i couldn't sleep and my heart was racing so i stopped for 2 days then started again. It's a foul tasting pill, but i took it with orange juice so the odor was nonexistant. M 22 4 days

 4  stomach parasite/bacteria metallic taste, major nausea, fatigue, 3 day headache I got the generic version, so the tablets aren't coated. Horrible taste. Tried to fill my mouth with water then drop the tablet in and swallow, but still yuck! Felt queazy, even with food. Had a headache for 3 days!!! I think it's working. I had mild diarrhea, now it's moderate/normal. Still have loose stool, but I think that's from the medication itself. We'll see how it goes after I finish my meds. F 23 8 days

 2  Dental surgery Sleepiness, mostly lethargic throughout the day, headaches, bloating, mood swings Is anyone else experiencing bloating and water retention? I read two comments that mentioned bloating but I feel like I'm retaining a lot of water. Also, the comments on this website helped me tremendously since the traditional medical sources on the web didn't list any of the side effects that I'm experiencing nor is it stated on the bottle. The dentist or the pharmacist failed to mention this either. F 31 10 days
