I have always had a problem taking any medication because of stomach problems, so before I started taking Metronidazole 500mg twice a day for 7 days I was horrified after reading the negative effect it had on so many. I think I let my nerves get the best of me in the beginning but I found that it wasn't as bad as I thought. I found that eating a small meal before I took it and taking it with a gla ...

I have always had a problem taking any medication because of stomach problems, so before I started taking Metronidazole 500mg twice a day for 7 days I was horrified after reading the negative effect it had on so many. I think I let my nerves get the best of me in the beginning but I found that it wasn't as bad as I thought. I found that eating a small meal before I took it and taking it with a glass of cold water...I am fine. I still have a few days to go, but I already feel and see a difference. Follow the directions that are given to you by your doctor and don't let the negative effects that you read from others determine if/whether you take it or not. Your health is so much more important. The end result is so much better than the problem. Good luck to everyone.

The medication was easy to take, but tastes horrible. After the use of the pill I wound up with a stomache ache. The last three days I was very dizzy. Although prescribed....I've never had any symptoms of the infection but I guess lab results are "lab results'.

I'm a 49 yr old that needed to have a hysterectomy performed. I must say before taking the pills, I read all the reviews. The reviews had me terrified. I had no choice so began taking 7 days 2x a day. I had none of the symptoms mentioned on any of the reviews.

Once I started drinking plenty of water it went away. My symptoms are gone

This is my 1st time taking this medication. I have only had side effects of increased sleepiness and slight fogginess/dizziness, but they are mild compared to the symptoms of my infection. I have 1 day left of an RX of 500mg 2x a day x 7 days. Symptoms of infections began clearing after the 2nd day of use. I would certainly use this again if I had the unfortunate luck of getting the BV again. ... Show Full Comment

As far as the taste of the medication, it is nasty, but just take it with food and any taste will disappear right away.
