Flagyl

My husband got a prescription for pouchitis - flagyl (metronidazole) of a dose of 500 mg. every six hours for ten days (totaling 2,000 mg) - he has bad side effects of stomach cramps, little constipation, heartburn.  Isn't 2000 mg. too much?  He wants to cut it in 1/2 to 1,000 mg a day for ten days.  Should he go lower?  He is also taking two sachets of VSL3 daily for the same ten days.  Thanks all.
