Can you breastfeed while treating a vaginal bacteria?

Yes, definetely! These are totally separate areas of the body. If a doctor gave you oral antibiotics, as long as they are compatible with lactation; you should continue breastfeeding. There are plenty of antibiotics that are safe while breastfeeding, so there is no reason why you couldn't continue to breastfeed. You should always let your doctor and pharmacist know you are breastfeeding so they will consider this with your prescription.

When can you breastfeed safely after taking recreational drugs?

The obvious medical answer to this question is naturally evasive. You should never take recreational drugs in the first place, and should certainly never expose your baby to recreational drugs that might be in breastmilk. My fear is that the question is asked by someone who is trying to determine what would be a safe amount of time to wait after using a drug before breastfeeding. My hope is that what they mean to ask concerns how long after quitting the use of recreational drugs can one safely begin to breastfeed. The answer to the first is easy. There is no safe way to take recreational drugs and breastfeed during the same time frame. The answer to the second is a bit more difficult. A pregnant woman should stop using recreational drugs immediately upon learning that she is pregnant, if not before. After the nine month pregnancy period, she should be able to safely breastfeed once the baby is born.

Half life of metronidazole is about ten hours. So most men will be able to drink after three days of stopping the drug. To be on safer side, you can wait for another two days.
