I took this medication for 7 days 2 times a day for bacterial vaginosis. I thought I was pregnant!!! I am always regular each month and on this medication I got my period 3 days early! It was thought to be implantation bleeding because it was very light etc. All except it lasted 8 days my period only last 4 days. I believe this medication messed my cycle up for the month. I just got the results from a blood test I am not pregnant!!!? It's got to be from the antibiotic. Has this ever happened to any one????

My daughter lost consciousness and went into respiratory distress...all because her doctor and her pharmacist did not stress the importance of NOT taking this drug while drinking alcohol. I looked throughout many drug books (I'm a nursing student) and there is VERY LITTLE regarding warning against taking this medication with alcohol. Get with it guys! This drug can be very dangerous! If my daughter's friends had not called 911, she very well would NOT be here today!

I've only taken three pills so far and am experiencing a lot of lower back pain. My prescription is one pill twice a day for seven days. I couldn't eat my dinner last night. I also had HALF of a cup of coffee this morning and was wound up for at least four hours. I felt like swearing off caffeine for the rest of my life. What a terrible feeling. If you feel jittery on this medication... DO NOT drink coffee!

I have not taken any medication in many years as I am generally healthy. After taken these large nasty pills, I feel very dizzy, spacey and sleepy. I have been prescribed 500 mg. for 7 days and since day one I've felt this way. This is day 4 and I feel very sleepy. The taste is HORRIBLE and everything I've eaten since than has a metallic 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.

this medication makes me feel sullen, tired, and jittery/anxious. I HATE IT.. I strongly suggest you try to use something else.

I have been taking metronidazole 500mg. every 12 hours, 2 a day, Past 4 days I have been taking this medication, I have had no side effects what so ever. It don't taste nice, but what medicines do? This medication has helped me from cramping and adominal pain. I get a little sleepy but at least I have some rest.

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.

I have an addiction history and at this time am in recovery. Since taking this medication I have felt some drowsiness. Is this medication habit forming?
