 4  H. Pylori Chalky mouth/throat, metallic taste, insatiable appetite, dark/loose/odorless stool, dry skin, mild fatigue/dizziness. Cleared up my gut infection. It's an unpleasant treatment. I would suggest that many of the side-effects of this drug are more directly related to its complete eradication of all gut flora. The stuff that lives inside us is very important to our integral health. I would strongly emphasize the importance of an aggressive probiotic regime during treatment and after completion.

 1  H Pylori Extreme dizziness, headaches, stiff neck, tingling sensations all over, twitching muscles, body aches (tendons and bones), complete loss of appetite (weight loss), nausea, impaired vision and motor skills, depression and feeling of complete apathy. This is absolute poison and someone needs to be held accountable. These doctors refuse to recognize the number of lives this drug destroys - it’s probably easier for them to dismiss patients than have to deal with them. It’s all a business after all. Half these doctors have no idea what they’re buying from these big pharmaceutical companies. It’s such a shame. I had to quit my job because I was becoming a detriment in my work place. I wonder if I’ll ever be able to work in a kitchen again. I’ve lost so much weight and strength. My body aches and my energy level is nonexistent. I just want my life back! Dont ever take this drug!

 1  Suspected infection Within 36 hrs I developed a headache, room spinning dizziness, nausea, loss of appetite and fatigue. Within 3 days this had escalated to severe inducing constant heaving and vomiting. I have never felt so ill in my life. Its 5 days since I stopped mid the 7 day course and still feel dreadful with these symptoms. The dizziness isnt quite as severe, and although still very nauseous ive finally stopped throwing up. I will NEVER take these pills again, they are pure evil. I hope I recover, its very concerning to still feel so ill almost a week after ceasing taking them. See above. Doctors should be aware of the extreme side effects and reactions that can present with this drug, and advise patients to stop the course immediately. F 51 4 days

 1  VB Extreme anxiety, depression/crying, complete loss of appetite, diarrhea, metallic taste in mouth, extreme lethargy This drug is hell. I am terrified I've done permanent damage after reading all these comments. I'm on day 6 but have decided to stop taking as I've been having extreme anxiety and depression. I feel like a zombie and I have no motivation. I haven't eaten properly in 6 days. I'm just really hoping there's no lasting damage. Definitely avoid this pill. F 29 6 days

 1  Trich Awful! Never again will I take them. I want to rate this drug a negative 10! I broke out in hives all over and had facial swelling. I became depressed and could do nothing but cry. On top of all the side effects, it didn't even work. I would rather try to heal myself with natural methods than to even consider using again. Please ask for an alternative F 33 3 days

 1  Bacterial Vaginosis Nauseous, depression, crying spells, metal taste in mouth, lower abdominal twinges (not pain as such), very tired feeling but didn't sleep very well when it came to sleeping. Complete loss of appetite, lower sex drive (but thought that was because it was poorly down there!) and my urine was the colour of wood. I was prescribed this as I had slight thrush & BV at the same time! I had never had these so didn't realise and just thought it was a simple antibiotic but WOW had it taken me for 6! I feel sick without even eating anything. Dull tummy aches and slight head ache (fog). I then started getting my anxiety high due to reading up about it way too much but came across all these comments and sites and it would appear that it could be ALL to do with these tablets. I have now as of last night taken my last tablet and feel very sick today. But am hoping they have worked for the infection but i would absolutely not take these again. What a scary drug and reaction :( F 38 7 days
