A member asked:

Taking 500mg flagyl 2x daily. will finish last pill at 6 pm tonight. birthday is tomorrow. can i have a glass of wine at supper?

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Should be ok: Drinking a glass of wine 24 hours after your last dose of Flagyl should be fine as long as you do not have severe kidney or liver disease which would delay your metabolism of that drug.

Yes!: Yes, it should be fine. It should not have much of an effect by tomorrow. Have a happy birthday!
