Bacterial Infection
"I have been taking 500 milligrams twice a day for 7 days for BV. I have taken this before but it&#039;s been about 15 years. I don&#039;t have any problems with side effects. Yes it has a metallic taste but if you are good at taking pills it is not a problem. You need to put a small amount of liquid in your mouth first, throw the pill back then swallow all at once. Can&#039;t even taste it that way. The doctor had me paranoid to take this medicine because they said it would make me sick and violently ill if I drink alcohol with it. I did not want to use a cream so this is way easier for me. My past experience is that it will give me a yeast infection but I am prepared this time to treat it. I am thankful I don&#039;t have the awful side effects described here."
