The Dangers of Flagyl and Alcohol
Interaction
Flagyl (Metronidazole) Interactions With Alcohol
Flagyl is the brand name of metronidazole, an antibiotic used to treat a variety of infections,
from stomach ulcers to meningitis. (Metronidazole is also found in some other brand name
antibiotics, including ; check your antibiotic's label.) Most side effects are run-of-the-mill,
such as nausea and vomiting. However, Buy Flagyl is reported to interact dangerously with
another common drug: alcohol.

Drinking even a small amount of alcohol (ethanol) while taking Flagyl can make a person
very sick. Metronidazole and alcohol together cause severe nausea and vomiting, flushing,
fast heartbeat (tachycardia), and shortness of breath. The reaction has been described as being
similar to the effects of Antabuse, a drug that treats alcoholism by causing patients to become
very sick when they drink.

Obviously, beverages containing alcohol should not be consumed during treatment with
Flagyl, but small amounts of alcohol can be found in hidden sources as well. Some kinds of
mouthwash and cold medicine contain alcohol. Small amounts may also be served at
religious services. Patients should avoid all of these alcohol sources while taking Flagyl and
for 48 hours following the end of treatment.

How To Use Oral

This medication may be taken with food or a full glass of water or milk to prevent stomach
upset. Dosage is based on your medical condition, the type of infection being treated, and
your response to therapy.

Therefore, take this drug at evenly spaced intervals.

Continue to take this medication until the full prescribed amount is finished, even if
symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping the medication too early may allow

antibiotics? Some antibiotics carry a warning to avoid
alcohol. But others

antibiotic. Alcohol doesn't diminish the effectiveness of most antibiotics. However,
antibiotics and alcohol can cause similarside effects, such as stomach upset, dizziness and
drowsiness. When you combine antibiotics and alcohol, these side effects may increase.

sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim) - should not be mixed with alcohol because this mayresult in a
more severe reaction. Drinking any amount of alcohol with these medications can result in
side effects such as flushing, headache, nausea and vomiting, and rapid heart rate. Keep in
mind that some cold medicines and mouthwashes also contain alcohol. So check the label and
avoid such products while taking these antibiotics.
