Reply to "Flagyl/Metronidazole dosage"

Peggy-

Unfortunately that doc is an idiot. It’s certainly true that Cipro can sometimes have terrible side effects. So can Flagyl. Every medication includes a risk/benefit calculation. Casually choosing a poorly-tolerated medication based on sloppy risk estimation isn’t good medicine.

It’s true that Cipro shouldn’t be the first choice when equally effective, safer alternatives exist (for example to treat a simple UTI). That logic does not apply to your situation.
