A member asked:
If i have symptoms of jaundice,constipation,nausea,would it be safe to take antibiotics metronidazole,clindamycin for bv?

See a doctor: Symptoms of jaundice, constipation and nausea are serious. Clindamycin and Metronidazole are both excreted through the liver so I would have the jaundice worked up before taking these medications.

No: Talk to your doctor first. Jaundice can be very serious.
