A member asked:

How soon does alcohol make you sick on flagyl?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Immediately or never: A review article found eight published reports but concluded that the link had not been proven. If the reaction does occur, it would be immediate, as it is with Disulfiram (antabuse).
