    If you are having side effects from the pills then go and see the GP or to A&E depending how bad they are.

    An old uni mate of mine had a bacterial infection from tulip, and while she took her full course of GP prescribed antibotics ended up being hospitalized and put on IV ones as the infection didn't go. She ended up not being able to drink alcohol for the best part of a year and had to give poo samples every few months.

    Alcohol very bad.

    Takes 48 hours to fully get rid it from your system.. 32 hours?? Your life fella, you choose

    Metronidazole and alcohol

    Although there has been little in the way of published pharmacological evidence to support this interaction with alcohol.
    A review of the literature between 1969 and 1982 reports cases involving eight patients, four of which were serious, including one death.
    Alcohol very bad.

    If it was as you described I would still be taking the pills.

    Well I'm certainly staying off the booze. As the side effects with the pills were too severe I stopped taking them yesterday lunchtime.

    I can see it now, doubled up in agony in A&E. So Suity, the pills were giving you crippling pain, so you ...... kept taking them rather than go back to your GP for something different?

    Had a course to treat Helicobacter pylori, it wipes out your 'gut flora' so you'd be wise to not eat anything heavy straight after and not drink like it says.

    I felt sick the whole time I was on them.

I would seriously sugest taking them and not drinking alcohol (you can get alcohol free shandy in Germany now so that might suit you!), especially those ones.
    It was definately the pills making my tummy hurt as the pain would start a few minutes after taking them. I'm off them for just over 24 hours and am feeling much much brighter.

    And my pee has gone back to normal. No longer Kia Ora orange.
