My fiancee has been to see a doctor for odour from her vagina and she was given this medicine (metro midazol fourty 500gram) to take I have searched for it on internet and could not find not one single page about it. She is in the xxxxxx and this is very worrying as the record of health issues really has got a lot to be desired.

hello,
Thanks for the query.
Doctor has prescribed the drug metronidazole for vaginal discharge.
It is safe to consume metronidazole provided you do not drink alcohol while you are taking metronidazole and for at least 3 days after you stop taking it. You may have unpleasant side effects such as fast heartbeats, warmth or redness under your skin, tingly feeling, nausea, and vomiting.
Antibiotic medicines can cause diarrhea, which may be a sign of a new infection. If you have diarrhea that is watery or bloody, stop taking metronidazole and call your doctor.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
