Avatar n tn For the past ten days I have been taking Metronidazole (Two 250mg oral tablets, twice daily). I took my last pills lastnight around 10:30 pm. My question is, would it be okay for me to consume alcohol on Saturday night? I know my pharmacist told me to absolutely stay away from alcohol while I was taking the pills because I would vomit alot, and he said most people wait a couple of days after they've finished before they drink. Im just wondering if two days is enough time?
Avatar m tn Your doctor has correctly treated you for both of these -- cefixime against gonorrhea, docycycline against NGU (using American spellings). The metronidazole probably was not necessary; it is intended to treat trichomonas, but that infection is not likely from oral sex. However, it won't do any harm, and your doctor was probably just being careful. Your doctor correctly told you how to take the drugs. The large single doses of cefixime and metronidazole are normal.
Avatar f tn If the STD came back would mean it would have not been treated effectivly which means those original symptoms would have also come back. This is not an issue with Trich.
Avatar m tn 1. should i take metronidazole before going back to the doctor? 2. assuming that my doctor had a mistake, is there any bad effect in my health after taking the medications? 3. will it be appropriate if i will discuss to my doctor about what i just learned? please help me on this for i am in panic..thanks..
Avatar f tn Hi, I have Bactorial Vaginosis, and they gave my some antibiotics, Metronidazole, but the nurse told me you cannot drink alcohol at all while taking this medication, so I wanna wait until after the New Year like either Sunday or Monday, to start taking it. Is that a problem to wait to take it, the nurse said it was fine to wait, But I just wanted to know, it won't make the infection worse will it waiting 5 or 6 days to start taking the medication??
Avatar m tn Or should I request of the STD clinic to take (doxycycline) plus metronidazole? Now that I have started metronidazole should I just stop on the 4th day, and wait for the new doxycycline plus metronidazole regime? That is, will taking another 3 days of it without the doxycycline make me build up a resistance to it or should I stay the course and see if another 3 days helps.
Avatar m tn First of all, thank your partner for telling you. Unfortunately, some do not. If she had trich. metronidazole is highly effective. As for your continued discomfort, treatment without an examination is not such a good thing. The treatment you received would be good for a bladder infection but not for the STDs most likely to be present, nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) or chlamydia.
Avatar m tn As you mention, the preferred therapy is a single dose of metronidazole (flagyl). On the other hand, the antibiotics you mention would be expected to cure chlamydia, NGU and nearly all gonorrhea. Did your symptoms improve on any of these medications or were they unchanged? Let me know your responses to these clarifying questions and I may be able to add another comment or two.
Avatar f tn My antibiotics are docycline and metronidazole. Can i take probiotics with them?
Avatar f tn I was recently diagnosed with trich and was prescribed by a nurse 500 mg 2 times a day for 5 days of metronidazole. I'm really cautious and worried about taking it because i searched and this pill has a lot of bad side effects, like making you really sick. It says that there is an alternative pill called azithromycin with less side effects. I talked to my OB about that and she said that she hasn't prescribed that to anyone who has trich.
Avatar f tn Hi only testing would confirm an std.
Avatar f tn I was dating a guy for awhile who had a vasectomy. The last time we were intimate was the last day of my period and ever since then (4 weeks ago) I've noticed a different odor down there that didn't smell bad, just not me. He has not had any STD-like symptoms. After my most recent period, the odor got stronger and now there is a pasty white discharge that I've never had before. There are no sores, itching, burning, or pain.
Avatar m tn About 6 months ago, I noticed that I had discharge and dysuria and came to the conclusion that I had urethritis. Thinking that it was caused by an std,I want to the doctor who gave me a ceftriaxone injection and put me on ciprofloxacin pills for 3 days. The symptoms went down drastically but they never completely went away.
Avatar m tn Redness of my foreskin of penis, and this little red spots on my gums.. It can be reactions of taking metronidazole 2 times ? or the std that i have didnt go away and it get reaction with alcohool ? Sorry it can be not writet well all this but im very scared and i dont know what to do, until i will get tested for all STD's.. So my question is this, The red spots it can be from Metronidazole, or the Std that i dont know what is, or HIV ???? PLEASE!!! I WILL APPRECIATE VERY MUCH!!
Avatar f tn Even if I had more ideas about it, this forum is strictly limited to STD issues, not a resource to figure out non-STD genital symptoms. My last advice is to specifically find combined gyn/infectious disease specialist. As noted above, such persons often can be found in association with major medical centers or medical schools. Sorry I can't help further. Good luck with it.
Avatar n tn She used the Metronidale gel for 5 days and her symptoms disappeared. I took Metronidazole 500 mg PO q12h x 7 days. I thought I started to feel better toward the 6th day, but still with some urge to urinate and discomfort. Then, about 3-4 days later, my discomfort was even worse then before. The urge to urinate was constant, discomfort in the urethra, and I felt as if my perineum hurt (swollen Prostate?), & scrotum burning. The clinic prescribed Tinidazole 2g for 5 days as a follow-up.
Avatar m tn Hi, Long time i don't have sex with my wife because i'm working in abroad,I saw this "metronidazole miconazole" to my wife i don't know what is this and she is using this one what can be the effect with me if i sex with him there is possible infection for me even i used him for only once.hope you can help me.
Avatar f tn It's been 3 months and my doctor keeps giving me metronidazole. Apparently I have bv but i never experienced a burning/itching or bad odor... I only see a bit of green after i wipe so it's not messy but i know green means bad... It's making me depressed because the green mucousy discharge never seems to go away. Also my bf doesn't have any problems so its not an std. any advice? home remedies? help?
Avatar n tn Is it possible to pass an STD (gon, chlam, etc) to my baby from changing diapers? I'm typically vigilant with washing my hands but could have slipped up when sleep deprived. It sounds like a theoretical route, but is it realistic? I'm wondering if I went to the bathroom and got something on my hands, forgot to wash hands, then changed a diaper (wiped her privates with wipe, etc)..could that be a route of transmission for my baby?
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with ngu took the medicine and mygirgirlfriend took the meds also. We waited over a week like the Dr said to have sex. Well again the pain and discharge are back so I went to see the Dr again. He gave me a shot and more meds for me and my girlfriend. We have been using protection condoms after that and waited 10 days before having sex. Now the pain and discharge is back again. She went to the clinic and came up negative for ngu but came up positive for bacterial vaginosis.
Avatar m tn m still waiting for the test results. Uncomfortable after seeing my doctor last, I went to an STD clinic the following day and left urine sample. The clinic doctor prescribed Metronidazole. I'm still waiting on those test results as well. Upon starting Metronidazole I stopped taking the Ciprofloxacin that my doctor had prescribed. I'm not sure what I should do and I'm not sure what I shouldn't do! This process has been ongoing since the end of June.
Avatar n tn My Dr has treated me with Metronidazole- brand name used was flagyl Nylstatin for yeast, clamycin,spandnox (for yeast), and recently had some relief with Augmentin(which was prescribed for a chest infection). When i was on augmentin all the above symptoms went away however came back 1 or 2 days after i came off the anti biotic.
Avatar f tn so okay.. i had thick white cottage cheese discharge that smelt really really bad "fishy" like. and i thought i had a std, then i found out i was pregnant and the doctor did all the std test and they all came back negative but then i asked him to prescribe me something for it. he prescribed me metronidazole vag gel, i took it for 5 days and now i have a small amount out white creamy odorless discharge.
