A member asked:
I began taking metronidazole yesterday afternoon and began feeling a sore throat shortly after and now it feels worse about 12 hours later. ?

Probably unrelated: Sore throat is not a likely symptom of allergy or other side effect from metronidazole. But if it's severe or continues, or if you develop allergic symptoms (e.g. skin rash) check with the doctor who prescribed it.
