I was prescribed Metronidazole for associated antibiotic diarrhea. For the first 5 days I had no side effect. On day 6 I started to feel fatigue and this symptom would seem to come in waves. It seems to increase this symptom as the days progressed. Now Im on Day 8 and feeling just completely out of it. Like i haven't slept or sort of a drunk feeling. I have to say that I have never experienced any side effects from prescription medication before so this is the first. I can't wait to get done with this. I just want to be back to my same self.

I started taking the Metronidazole (prescribed 1 tablet, 2x/day) 500 mg. After three days, I experienced fatigue, headaches, which got worse. By Friday, I had to leave work, and I was in bed w/flu-like symptoms: my head felt like it was to blow off, nausea, and hollow back pain in lower. I had to stop taking the meds. All symptoms subsided within one day, except my back hurts when I walk, and the headaches are infrequent but still remain. I called to report to my doctor. The nurse said that she had not heard of anyone having side effects from the drug.

I've taken metronidazole twice in the past year for intestinal parasite. 700 mg, 3x a day for ten days.

I have an awful metallic taste in mouth, dark brown urine, lost of appetite, fatigue, and headaches. Some days are better than others.

I have found that drinking beverages at room temp with out ice helps along with hot food. Something to do with the temp of the food brings out the metalic taste.

I also chew gums and suck on peppermint candy to mask the taste.

I have gotten a horrible yeast infection while taking this medication as well as severe fatigue. I would not willingly take this medication again. It has the worst side effects out of anything I have taken before. I also got really bad pack pain and dizziness.

While taking this medication, I grow a bit fatigue, and while trying to swallow it, the taste is disgusting, and I attend to gag the pill out of my mouth, and the pill turns to moosh. I was originally prescribed Flagyl, but my lovely pharmacy friends substituted this Metronidazole for Flagyl.
