Flagyl ER (metronidazole): This medication works well. You have to take it for a week straight and you can not drink with it for 9 days. Overall good medication but long recovery time.

metronidazole: I have one more day to take. I take it 3x daily for 7 days. I haven't had any side effects as of today, beside feeling tingling in the hands when I'm sleep and redness undertone of the skin. I too think its effective and I hope also that I don't incur any other infections after taking. Oh, plus I drink plenty of water while taking.

metronidazole: This antibiotic was very strong to me. Make sure that you eat before taking it. The bowel movements for me were very frequent and made me feel a little sick. I had to take it twice a day.

metronidazole: Due to itching, burning and discharge, I was told I had bacterial infection. I am on 500MG metronidazole twice a day X 7 days. The first few days of taking pill I was sick and dizzy. Third day I avoided taking pill so close to eating. That helped. I still get slightly dizzy around pill time. I drink with great tasting juice so I don't need to taste the pill. I feel that its improving my infection. I have two days left. Only side effect is slight diarrhea.

metronidazole: I took one pill and was so close to gagging, that I called my pharmacy to see if there was another version they sold that including a coating on the pill. Since there wasn't, I had to come up with an alternative if I was to ever get past the first dose. So I decided to coat the pill myself with peanut butter, which did the trick with helping that little rancid pill get down. I checked with the pharmacist, and he said it was okay to do that. After I eat, I can still taste it a little, but it's nothing like it was before I coated it.

metronidazole: I was experiencing a lot of discharge, itching and burning. The doctor verified that I had a vaginal bacterial infection. The Metronidazol Tab 500 mg tablet was given to me for 7 days. I feel sick to my stomach and dizzy most of the time. The left side of my face feels a little numb. The taste in my mouth is awful, but I chew gum to counteract it. I have 2 doses to take yet, and find it hard to swallow because of there is no coating on the tablets. Hopefully it did it's job without causing any other problems.

metronidazole: I'm on my second to last day of treatment and so far I'm not seeing any results. I'm starting to think maybe I'm dealing with an yeast infection that I probably got from it. Unpleasant pills that made these last few days a living hell for me. However, effective nonetheless.
