2 days: Manufacturers of metronidazole advise that you should avoid drinking alcohol while taking the antibiotic and for 48 hours after finishing the course.

The basics: This gel is absorbed into your bloodstream in small amounts. Even in that small quantity it can trigger fairly significant nausea if you consume any alcohol. That includes any amount in a cough medicine or other product withe even minimal amounts.Give it a few days to be sure it is out of your system or the effects are predictable.
