User Reviews for metronidazole oral

Slight headache, no other symptoms

This stuff is horrible.. I have the worst chest pains on this, my stomach is killing me (yes I eat with this), I get so dizzy I feel like I’m going to pass away, and it tastes horrible. I don’t know how this stuff is legal. I don’t have symptoms of BV and they still made me take it. I’m so angry… I can’t drink for 10 days?! Like I hate everyone now.

I’ve never had to read reviews of any medication! By far the worst thing that I’ve taken in my life! Nausea, headaches, moody, fatigue, the whole package. I’m on day 4 of 7 and I’ve been debating whether it’s worth continuing. Vaginal discharge actually got worse (or maybe it’s a yeast infection that’s developing?) Libido is so low, I don’t want my husband to touch me (and I’m the one who’s usually touchy). No medicine has made me feel like this ever, it’s scary.

I’m on day 5 of 7, I don’t feel like myself, I feel flushed but no fever, nauseous, awful taste in my mouth, very fatigued & headaches & very agitated/moody. The fatigue didn’t start til after my first dose on day 4 & continued day 5, I am not taking any more & calling my doctor Monday to use the gel instead. These side effects are horrible & I already have horrible anxiety & these side effects make it so much worse.

Hello everyone! Reading the reviews on this antibiotic scared the crap out of me but I have been dealing with bv for so long I had no choice . I’m on day 3 of 5. Symptoms haven’t been too bad . Very dark urine slight nausea. The pill taste is HORRIBLE. Try coating it with honey it works wonders . So far smell is gone down below. But I can’t wait to get off these because it’s kind of also messing with my appetite. You guys got this ! So far it’s working!

I’m on my last two days and I can safely say I was worried for absolutely no reason. Besides very mild cramps, small headaches, and occasional diarrhea, this medicine gave me almost no side effects. I’m 21, 5”3 and 116lbs I was prescribed this for bv. 7 day treatment plan

I was prescribed 4 tablets of 250mg 4 times a day = 16 pills in one day! I asked my doctor if that was too much to take and she said no that is recommended since i have H. pylori (infection in the stomach lining) Could cause ulcers and possibly cancer if not treated. Since im allergic to penicillin i have to take other alternatives. I took this and Tetracycline and got an allergic reation to tetracycline so changed to Clarothymicin 500mg. This Medication Metronidazole is horrible, I feel like ive been drugged, severe headaches, severe stomach cramping, dizziness, pain in my eyes, feels like im drunk, feel confused or cant focus. the horrible dry mouth and taste left in my mouth of bitterness or metal, gross and joint pain, feels like my whole body might have arthritis. I dropped the pills down to 3 tablets 2 x a day and still have the same side effects. Not sure if im allergic or its still too much. Im 40 and weigh 180 pounds, 5ft 3 in. So i think im taking enough for my body weight. Still have not finished this med. It feels like its slowly killing me instead of making me feel better. Not sure if that is normal.Read More Read Less

After taking this medicine for 3 to 4 days I had extreme pain in all my joints, severe headache and metallic taste and nausea. When I contacted my doctor's office I was told these are not side effects of the medication. I was having an arthritic flare. The only symptom I had not on the list was the extreme pain. I am seeking a new doctor.

Can caused debilitating illness and death mixed with heavy metal system from ingesting through foods or holistic medicine, i injested during 72 hour period from a shot of magnesium. Only took 4 pills . Worked great when system had normal magnesium levels took for two weeks and recovered eating normal.

Honestly the only notable side effects for me was just an overwhelming sluggishness and somewhat heavy and empty mind! I initially thought the symptoms were going to have me rendered to my bed endlessly, but despite my weak stomach and all the main issues was just the sluggishness! It might be worth mentioning that whilst taking these I was sadly struck with flu too, so I definitely think that amplified some of the side effects to an extent.

This medication gave me the worst side effects I’ve ever experienced. Nausea 24/7, dizziness, migraines, loss of appetite, shortness of breath, anxiety, chest pain, spotting, brain fog, overall just felt crappy. Never experienced this many side effects from a medication before.

I was put on the metro. gel first and i was surprised i had a bad experience with it because i never have any bad experiences with medicine. After an hr of taking the gel my right leg felt tingling and numb i didn’t think nothing of it until i started to feel it in my hands and feet my bv did seem to get better though. I finally went to the hospital when i started experiencing heart palpitations and night sweats and i thought it something more serious so i went back to the hospital they put me on the pills and i can’t get over the taste but it’s better because i’m not experiencing tingling or numbness in my feet and hands and i also did have a stiff neck take good my bv is getting better but i will NEVER take this medicine again .Read More Read Less

I had been bitten by my cat and due to having 2 knee replacements, I had to have a strong antibiotic to fight against infection. This pill was disgusting to take; I had been prescribed 500 mg, 3 times a day, for 14 days. The pill worked, however, I have suffered several side effects from it. First off, I had no appetite and everything I ate had a metallic taste. To be fair, I lost 15 pounds ("ain't nobody mad about that!") and the worst side effect was to my vision. I finished the Rx. 11/21/22, and am still suffering from eye issues. My eyes are so supersensitive to light, whereas they never had been prior to this Rx. Also, my eyes are extremely dry and ache all the time. It's a shame to have to wear sunglasses inside because your eyes hurt from the light, or worse yet, having to wear huge sunglasses (think "Maxine" on the greeting cards) over your regular Rx sunglasses simply, because you can't stand the bright light and pain. As for the nasty taste of the pill: put the pill as far back on your tongue as possible, (without choking!) and then drink Coke from a straw to wash it down. GAME CHANGER!!!! Read More Read Less

Verociouss appetite. Ease of pelvic pain. Eliminated lymph pain and bleeding tongue.

I started taking this yellow tablet on Saturday after I had my tooth extracted, I only started feeling symptoms on the 3rd tablet.. I was at work yesterday from 11:00am till half 9 in the night, I've felt dizzy, nauseous, my vision was abit blurry, I started throwing up everything I ate, it was the worst experience ever, my head is throbbing from yesterday till now and if I only knew it was going to be this bad , I wouldn't have taken it, I should have done my research before taking this pill for the first time, now my legs are paining and my feet, all the side effects.. hopefully I'll be fine tomorrow..if a female is reading this, don't think you're pregnant ???????it's the tablet!!Read More Read Less

I can’t say enough bad things about this medicine. I took it for a infection due to left over tissue from a miscarriage following a d&c. I have never read reviews stating it used for this but that’s what was given to me. I experienced extreme nausea, dizziness, fatigue, racing heart etc I was so depressed I actually scared multiplier members of my family I felt utterly hopeless. I wanted to die I have never felt this way in my life. I just wanted to cry it took everything to pull myself out of this depth of hell to I felt crazy I thought something was seriously wrong with me I’m 3 days off the of pills and my hands are shaking, still nauseous, my skin is burning and itching I hope to have some relief soon I will never take this pill ever again Read More Read Less

I had an infection so the doctor prescribed me this and my only complaint is the taste of the medicine. It had this taste to it that made me gag everytime I took it but other than that I felt better the same day after taking it.

I was on the pill for 7 days and I was so excited to be done with it! This medicine caused me to have mental issues. It does work but it made me feel like a psycho. Also the metallic taste is unbearable. This medicine also causes nausea. Had to drink chamomile tea to decrease the nausea.

I’m sure it’s helping for the most part. Although the metallic tast in mouth, I cannot taste my food properly if any at all. Severe cramping and painful urinating. It’s like a burning numbing feel. Ugh. Also the sex is so numbing I barely even feel it. The iud is the reason for this medicine. I hate it I hope everything goes back to normal. I have just as much pain on this than without it.

Dr put me on for 7 days twice a day 500 mg first 2 days were bad on 5 th day finally no diarea Back aches and headaches nasty taste hope this kills the bacteria before me won’t use again ever
