Metronidazole
bacterial vaginitis
"I want to share my experience to calm some of you women down that are scared to take this medicine. Lets start by saying I have a medication phobia. I'm always assuming the worst is going to happen when I start a new medication. I'm the biggest hypochondriac. I'm not even exaggerating when I say this.... I stared at this medication for 3 months before I finally took it because of the bad reviews I read. They kept making me procrastinate on taking it. My doctor prescribed me 500 mg of metronidazole twice daily for seven days. I finally got the nerve to take it. The first day I had a TINY bit of nausea and after that no side effects at all! By day three my symptoms were gone! So I'm now on day four and everything is still good with no side effects."
