    Yes, it's one dose but I got extremely ill. Within 8 hours of taking the drug, I had dizziness, nausea and vomiting. Stomach was upset for another 4-5 days, Metallic taste and loss of taste continued for about 7 days. I would've preferred using the creams for the 5-7 days instead. I've never experienced side effects like this with ANY drug I've taken. I will not take it again

    UPDATED COMMENT from 12/13/18. Last post from Dec. I still don't have odor through my clothes, irritation or gritty discharge. Since then, I've had no issues and finally for these last few months I been able to have a normal sex life. Very happy, but in a few months i'll be due for my annual and will need to take a culture test to see if this BV is still present or not. I know some w ... Show Full Comment

    I’ve had bv literally 4 times in the pass few months and nothing seemed to totally help it. Other meds worked but then it came back. I just took this a few hours ago with applesauce and it does taste awful! I had to hold my nose and try not to gag. But I am hopeful that it will work really well according to my doctor. I feel like this stuff will actually work!

Finally, i was perscribed solosec. My unsurance doesnt cover this drug, and the price was over $300. I got a cou ... Show Full Comment

    I just took this treatment right at 24hours ago and I already feel better. If you do not chew it then it doesn't have a taste. I took it with pudding and water. I would give this 5 stars but want to wait to see if this cures it completely after a few more days.
