Flagyl
Carol,
I took flagyl last month. My GI was not working after tapering my immuno suppressant, so instead of increasing my immuno suppressant, my hematology gave me flagyl to stop my diarrhea. It worked so well, that about half a day later I was fine.
The side effects were so hard, that I stopped flagyl after 4 days. (It was supposed to be for 7 days). Nausea, upset stomach. Liver, kidneys went up, and my platelets have gone beneath the normal range.
The diarrhea was so frustrating that the flagyl was worth it, even for 4 days. I've stopped it now, but my GI still needs some other meds to help with the side effects caused by flagyl. I'm taking Takecab/Vonoprazan, Rebamipide and MiyaBM for my GI issues.
Hope your flagyl gets you into a better place for your GI.
Meri
