User Reviews for metronidazole oral

I hate this antibiotic. It has awful side effects that last the duration of treatment. 1st day it kicked in while I was at work and I about hurled my guts up. Luckily I had Zofran in my purse to save me but I continued to need it or Phenergan throughout the course of treatment. Also when the initial nausea hit, I got very dizzy, weak and sleepy. The dizziness subsided but the weakness and sleepiness did not. I completely lost my appetite for a week. Only felt like laying in bed. It just makes me feel like I am inducing sickness on myself... but it did get rid of the bv infection. Read More Read Less

Womb infection after polyp removed, put on 400mg 3 time day ,after 4th day I thought i had over dosed. This drug is too powerful for me and i refused to take any more,what ever the doctors say. Know your own body and dont let anyone tell you to Finnish the course if you really think you are in danger your health. You must look after yourself because no one else will, there’s too much dishing out tablets.

This life saver medicine has cured my BV three times in my life. This medicine is amazing and works fast. Day one the smell was already gone I feel so relieved. Day 2 I feel even better. This is the only medicine that has cured my BV. No side effects it’s just a pill that does miracles.

Bad side effects...difficulty concentrating, speaking, caused irritability, sensitive to sound, insomnia

Sure, this killed my h pylori infection, but 2 months on I'm suicidal from the constant motion feeling and pressure that makes me feel like my head is going to explode. I constantly feel like I've been drugged or am an alcoholic trying to hide the fact I'm drunk from everyone. I do not feel normal, I do not feel like me.

Started working within 2 days, slowly subsiding, have another week of 2 a day, 500mg. for Cdiff. No side affects so far, been on it for 6 days.I am 81. Below didn’t let me select right age.

After taking the meds for 2-3 days I noticed tingling and tenderness on my hip and upper thigh, lethargy, stiffness, anxiousness & trouble breathing (like horse was standing on my chest). I discontinued this on my own and made the nurse practitioner aware. I haven't received an alternative as of yet. However, this drug will never go into my system again.

This helped my bv a lot. No more bad smell down there which is great. The affects from the pill though weâ??re horrible. Constantly nauseous, feeling like I was gonna throw up. I was super tired, disoriented, dizzy and bad headaches. I wish I got another pill because the affects were so bad for me. I had to take gravol everyday just to keep me from feeling like my head is spinning.

This medicine killed my 7 year old akc scottish terrier on the 2nd of taking this medicine!!! Please do not give to your pets!!! Its a killer!!

I took the Metronidazole GEL for 5 days once at bedtime. That cleared my BV , was symptom free for 3-4 days after until I had sex. Then it came back. I was prescribed the Metro Antibiotic for 7 days. Didn’t see improvement until 7-8 days.. unfortunately that didn’t clear it completely either. Just make sure you take probiotics for vaginal health with the antibiotic. I read that RePhresh works great for BV so I’m trying that next! Sorry to be a part of the never ending BV club, but hoping the probiotic will work. ?? Read More Read Less

No good. 2 hours in and my skin is on fire

Bv symptoms started to clear up within the first few days but the taste of the medicine and the headaches with it are kind of hard to deal with.

Severe itchy rash all over body. Lasted over a week after taking two pills

The effect was good but the side effect is very serious. It got me the bitter taste in my mouth and its the worst and i feel nauseous everytime. I feel dizzy and each day side effects gotten worse like you got another sickness .

I GET NO SIDE EFFECTS FROM THIS MEDICINE. BUT IT DOESNT WORK.

Just started taking this medication seven days ago. I’m on the last day! I just hope that the medication will work. I have experienced heart palpitations (feeling like a panic attack is going to happen) lightheadedness, fogginess, sleeplessness, bloated and nauseous. I never would have taken this RX had I known how it would make me feel. I kept getting pushback and was told to finish out the 7 days. Miserable experience!

I never had physical symptoms of BV, i found out I had it from lab testing, so I don’t know how well the pills were working. I do know that while on this antibiotic, for the five days that I was on it, I experienced dizziness, headaches, irritability, depression, loss of appetite. I also experienced non-stop heart palpitations for days. I ended up switching to the gel after going to the hospital for the heart palpitations, and it was so much better. No side effects at all. Would definitely recommend the gel over the pill Read More Read Less

I have been taking this for the past week first few days was OK 3 was hit with massive earache and tiredness. And all the side effects under the sun . I am 38 weeks pregnant and it's the worst I have ever felt. I wad completely fine and didn't even feel ill before taking them now I'm feeling like a bus as run me over :( not even been able to take anything really for the side effects. Last day today and I can't wait for these to be out my system!!!

I was really nervous of side effects, but my experience has been fine on metronidazole! The skin irritation I was experiencing is mostly gone - mostly and not completely because I now have a yeast infection. The pills are dry and taste bad but taking them with food and water helps a lot, I only have a slight metallic taste in my mouth with certain foods. It’s inconvenient not being able to drink alcohol on it, but overall I would take this again with no hesitation if needed.

I am on day 4 of 7 with taking this medication for the first time. The first 2 days was fine but day 3 I was super nauseous and tired all day then on day 4 I woke up with a bad headache and the tiredness continued. Also taking this medication gave me a BAD yeast infection. I found the pills hard to swallow and would leave a lingering taste that would not go away. Taking 2 250mgs in morning and night. So 4 pills a day. All in all I’m not liking these pills at all…
