Taking flagyl 500 mg twice a day for 7 days. i will take my last dose next tuesday at 7:30 a.m. ok to have alcohol next friday over 72 hours after?

OK any time: You could've been drinking alcohol (in moderation) all along. The old story about metronidazole was disproved long ago. For sure you can safely drink 3 days after the last dose.
