No, but if you drink alcohol while taking metronidazole, you are likely to experience severe nausea and vomiting due to interactions between those medications. If avoiding alcohol is not possible for you, call your health care provider for an alternate to metronidazole.
It will make you throw up and they say to wait 3 days after you have finished before drinking alcohol.Anyway if youre on antibiotics you arent well enough to be drinking in my oppinion.
Drinking alcohol with metronidazole (24 hours before through 48 hours after the course of therapy) is strongly discouraged as it can cause severe nausea and stomach upset. Alcohol can also interfere with the metabolism of metronidazole.
Yes. But you should avoid drinking alcohol while taking metronidazole - it can cause you to be very sick.
A drug interaction exists between Metronidazole and alcohol, it is known as a "disulfiram-like reaction". If these two are ingested together or even within 48-72 hours of each other it can result in very severe vomiting. Metronidazole gel, though used either topically (on the skin) or vaginally (inserted in the vagina), may result in a low amount/level of systemic absorption i.e. some of the drug may still get into your body system. If it does and you drink alcohol then you will have the very unpleasant reaction described above. It is for this reason that patients are advised to not drink alcohol whilst using Metronidazole gel.
No, as long as vaginal metronidazole is absorbed in little quantity, there is still a big reaction with alcohol and some people may react. The actual recommandation is to avoid alcohol while taking metronidazole in vaginal gel (Nydagel).
Metronidazole is the chemical name for Flagyl. Drinking alcohol while on oral Flagyl can cause nausea, rapid heartbeat and vomiting.
No ..Metronidazole should not be taken while drinking milk , in fact any antibiotics should not be taken with dairy product such as milk, yogurt etc. because dairy product contains the calcium which causes antibiotics less effective.
Because there's a small amount of metronidazole going in the blood, the interaction is the same... you should avoid alcohol during all the treatment and 3 days after.
You can not drink for 72 hours after taking the last dose.

Alcohol is part of a person's diet. Surprisingly, drinking in alcohol does not interfere with a program of weight loss or management.
It is fine. I have been taking 30mg for years and when I take metradonizole 500 there have been no side effects. So I'm sure it's fine
