I'm on Flagyl 4x day for 10 days. I don't know if it was mind over matter or the medication but I felt symptom relief after the 2nd pill. I personally haven't had any side effects but the taste of the pill is unbearable. I recommend yogurt when taking the pill because it helps somewhat.

I was on 400mg 3 times a day and experienced most of the side effects. On the last day I had stomach pain and diarrhea so I decided not to continue with it. Not sure if the bad bacteria was gone. I would never take this medicine again.

I have to defend the "bad taste" crowd because it was never the actual taste of the pill for me and, I didn't get the constant, stomach churning, salty/soapy taste until the last day but I stopped taking it a week ago and the taste hasn't diminished a bit and its bad enough that its making me nauseous. That said, I know it will eventually and that infection wasn't going to g ... Show Full Comment

I have to defend the "bad taste" crowd because it was never the actual taste of the pill for me and, I didn't get the constant, stomach churning, salty/soapy taste until the last day but I stopped taking it a week ago and the taste hasn't diminished a bit and its bad enough that its making me nauseous. That said, I know it will eventually and that infection wasn't going to go away on its own so its a necessary evil. I would like to share with others the only thing I've found that helps and that is brushing my teeth and tongue with baking soda. It usually helps for about an hour. Strait, raw, ginger helps while it is in my mouth but the taste comes back immediately. I got probiotics today in the hopes that whatever is causing the taste can be addressed and I can only say that I hope it works. Believe me, the taste is a real problem, and its not the taste of the actual pill. Those that don't get it should just thank their lucky stars but, as unpleasant as it might be, its no where near as bad as the condition the drug is treating.

I decided to write after reading all of the other very horible comments. 2 years ago I was diagnosed with BV. Flagyl was more than amazing. Everything cleared up. I did experience a severe headache around day 6. But this pill was worth it. So today when I recognized the symptoms, I called my doctor and asked for this pill by name.

I did experience a severe headache around day 6. But this pill was worth it. So today when I recognized the symptoms, I called my doctor and asked for this pill by name. Benefits far outweigh the annoyances. As far as the taste. No real coating, just swallow quickly and drink lots of water for the duration. I was on WebMD simply to check out all the other added benefits this little pill could do.

I was very leary about taking this med, but seems to be working without terrible side effects. As of right now, on my third day of use. I am getting itchy which is starting to turn into hives, but I intend on finishing this med despite that discomfort. The taste of the pill, please don't be a sissy. I just take it with water and drink plenty of water throughout the day. Urine color is darker, ... Show Full Comment

I was very leary about taking this med, but seems to be working without terrible side effects. As of right now, on my third day of use. I am getting itchy which is starting to turn into hives, but I intend on finishing this med despite that discomfort. The taste of the pill, please don't be a sissy. I just take it with water and drink plenty of water throughout the day. Urine color is darker, but I still have four days of treatment left. So, far I know it's working. I just have to keep an eye on the hives, but I often get those just from stress. So, it's possible the medication has nothing to do with my hives. Time will tell. I just want the infection gone and back to having a sex life with my hubby.
