    My Dr said I had BV and prescribed this drug for me. The first day that I used it, I had stomach cramps and what felt like a burning sensation against my cervix (from the list of symptoms, I guess that's normal.) The smell went away within 2 days. I've been having a cottage cheese like discharge from day 2. From the rest of the reviews, I guess that's normal. I wasn't aware I wasn& ... Show Full Comment

    the medicine works well at controlling the smell,but it never completely goes away.the restrictions on all alcohol products is too much,cant even use hair spray or perfume.i felt some dizziness and cramps and some nausea sometimes,but no diarrhea.didnt get yeast infections yet.i would use clidnamycin,but i have trich and its the only medicine for it and i cant take the oral pills.

    I am very dizzy, tired and listless. It is easy enough to use, but I feel horrible. I've used it before without these symptoms? Not sure what is different this time. I just have no energy - and brain fog. All I want to do is sleep. Four more days of this nightmare... but I can't even take flagyl. That makes me incredibly sick. I guess this is in the same family of drugs? Awful, aw ... Show Full Comment
