    Read reviews before taking. Learned alcohol should not be used so I have not had a drink and will not for duration. Very bitter but water helped and taste was gone quickly. Mixed with non dairy yogurt. No nausea but felt slight headache on and off for a few hours. Not bad. Day 2 and feel fine. No side effects to speak of. Hope it works. ð?¤?

    My doctor called and told me I had BV after my annual check up, I had no symptoms prior to taking this medication, but after taking it my discharge smelled very strong and I was in pain. The medicine was easy to take in yogurt, although the taste isn�t the best once you take a drink to wash it down the Bad taste goes away. I am now on flagyl after 4 days of waiting to see ...

    First time user and sprinkled it on vanilla yogurt. Taste was bitter but yogurt helped. I drank a glass of water but taste lingered. That night, I drank a glass of wine and felt very sick (nauseous, dizzy) afterwards. I'm 5'2" and 108 lbs so that may be part of the problem? Also, I don't drink often or much. Still felt not 100% this morning. Still some discharge, over 24 hours lat ... Show Full Comment

    Mixed with applesauce and had a really difficult time keeping it down because of the taste. It's effective and simple to use but it is TOUGH to swallow. I am unsure of other medication options for BV, but will definitely be asking at the very least of other more pleasant options that are equally effective.
