Why I Caution the Use of the Antibiotic Flagyl (Metronidazole) for SIBO and C. difficile Infections

Many different medications are in use where doctors are sadly unaware of their potentially severe side effects. The antibiotic Flagyl (metronidazole) is no exception. The antibiotic is very cheap, and it is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines (meaning it is believed to be safe and effective). Doctor’s prescribe it daily around the world without alerting their patients to the complications that are caused by the antibiotic and how to potentially protect them from unwanted side effects if its use is needed. I recommend that before you ever take a medication prescribed to you (unless it is an emergency) ask your doctor if they have ever read the medication insert for your prescribed medication. If they say no, then you should probably read it yourself, so you know more about the efficacy and risks of the prescribed medication and maybe find yourself another healthcare professional that takes the time to research what they prescribe. So what are the known severe side effects with Flagyl and what can be done to attempt to protect yourself from them if you have to take the antibiotic?
