What do you advise if i'm on flagyl. i have been taking it since monday and it is suppose to last for seven days.?

No big deal: Metronidazole (Flagyl® and generics) is commonly used for a variety of infections. It is mostly well tolerated with few side effects, but sometimes causes a bad taste in the mouth or mild nausea. It's often advised to avoid alcohol, but in fact alcohol and metronidazole usually are OK together. Follow your doctor's advice, but most likely you'll have no side effects.
