My doctor has me pulsing with tinidazole and I am also on 10 day course of Flagyl. Everything I have read has said that you are not to have alcohol with these drugs and the tincture contains alcohol. I don't think my doctor would have told me to take it if it was going to hurt me?? I know that just a small amount of alcohol(communion at Mass) throws me into a migraine when I was on the tinidazole before. I have called the doctor but no return call yet. Maybe I should just put this one I bought back for later and get a teasel tincture without alcohol??

Sometimes I will add some warm water to tincture in a glass and swirl it.
The theory is when the heat dissipates it also helps evaporate the alcohol in tinctures.
I try to do this the night before/12 hours before to allow as much time for the alcohol to evaporate.

Hmmm ok that is interesting. Wouldn't it just be better and safer to take a tincture without alcohol? I probably don't want to add the tincture just yet as I am herxing and don't want to overload my system.
