User Reviews for Flagyl oral

It appeared to work within 4 days.

I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease after severe abdominal pain and bloody painful bowel movements. I have been on flagyl for 5 days, I forgot to take it on time this morning, and it is the best I have felt in weeks. Nausea, I don't want to eat or drink anything or get out of bed, I think that I was taking pain pills to cover up the symptoms of flagyl, not my condition, b/c I haven't needed any. I want to stop taking it but am apprehensive that the original pain will return. Today they told me they were unsure of my diagnosis, but all the possibilities are treated with flagyl....Read More Read Less

After having 10 inches of colon removed with colon cancer several years ago, got am intestinal flu I could not seem to get rid of. Had bloating, pain with pressure, and loose bowels. Took this and felt better after just one pill. I am on 3X/day for 10 days. Have had no side effects at all and FEEL BETTER THAN I HAVE FOR YEARS. Bitter to swallow but I take it with and without food and once I swallow it I had had nothing but better guts and no bloating. Surprised about all the problems others are having, maybe you only feel moved to write a review if you have bad results.Read More Read Less

This medication makes me throw up what am i supposed to do..i ate with it and threw up colored gold fish..

I was on this medication for 2 weeks and it helped me have solid bowel movements and helped reduce swelling. On the downside, I have severe swelling in my feet and knees and cannot wear shoes and struggle to walk. My doctor prescribed Predisone to decrease the swelling because she wanted me to stay on Flagyl.

I've used this drug many times. I've no nausea. I have BMs more frequent, but not actual diarhea as described. It tastes bad, so don't drink it with an acidic beverage. Remember no alcohol even in mouthwash. This usually clears up any vaginal infection I've taken it for, and lasts several months before a reoccurance. I've noticed some hair loss---just more shedding than usual---but I don't see that as a side effect. I do have a thirst. I'm very happy I can take this antibiotic. I am allergic to amoxicillan.Read More Read Less

I have been wondering why I have terrible cramps and a headache. Yuk this stuff tastes gross too! I would suggest taking it with something flavored.

This med made me very nauseated and made me vomit on occasion

Horrible taste & gagging eased if take with a few saltines or other bland food. The first 3 to 4 days on cipro/flagyl combo, while on liquid diet, I find it helps to drink LOTS of water with it, and to drink with apple juice, coke or something else with some flavor to drown the foul taste.

I've only been on the medication three days and have had an allergic reaction in causing heavy rash and nausea. I would prefer an alternative.

My wife is 23 weeks pregnant and developed an infection. The drug has had terrible side effects. Rapid Heart beat and trouble breathing. Stomach cramping and contractions. Numbness in limbs and severe back pain. She was having a such a hard time breathing, we had to call an ambulance and she was admitted to the hospital. Also, the severity went in waves so she would recover and then worsen again. We were not told of the side effects

It made me nauseated,headachy,fatigue.....I had dark brown urine & strong metallic taste in my mouth...I had my annual bloodwork done and my chemistries for liver & kidneys were elevated & blood in my urine..This is a very potent drug & I was not advised propery..It is also very similar to Antibuse..I will never take it again...I didn't even finish it. I am also a medical professional. But the BV did clear up......

This is my second round of this medication,(7days 2x) I had to take it last year and had a relapse. Last year I remember the side effects being much worse, this time hasnt been so bad only slight nausea, the metalic taste isnt as bad this time around either. originaly taking it i didnt want to eat anything because the nausea was so severe. Be sure to eat plunty before taking the this medication along with drinking lots of fluids, i recommend taking it with tea or something flavored because it disapates quickly, and will leave a nasty taste in your mouth. My Husband had to take just 4 pills of 500mg being 2grams at once. Read More Read Less

this medication made me extremely nauseated even when taken with food. Should have a coating so it will go down easier.

Today is my first day on this med. So far I am experiencing itching to be my only side effect. My friend is a nurse and she told me to take pill in pudding or yogurt to avoid the taste. It worked! I didn't taste a thing!

First off let me start by saying I have suffered from a normal vaginal discharge for a very long time, just recently I started having a fishy smell after intercourse. Immediately I went to the doctor where she perscribed flagyl for me. I had to take this pill 7 days 2x a day-first day i had a headache and stomach cramps. Second day only pm diarrhea! Other than that no other side effects-the pills taste horrible! Ive found that if I take them with juice its ok-also i take them with food-that helps alot! I would highly recommend this medication. The results speak for themselves.Read More Read Less

I agree with every other comment out there! It has a horrible taste, and I have not eaten while I am on it. However, this is only my 2nd day, and I can tell my symptoms have gotten better.
