Don't drink any alcohol, it is used as an anti- abuse.
I have taken it and don't remember any problems.....

In addition to not DRINKING any alcohol be careful of alcohol in products such as mouthwash, herbal tinctures, skin products ect...
I put arnica gel on my jaw after taking my dose of flagyl and got sooooo sick. Found out the arnica was in an alcohol base. Any alcohol that can get absorbed into the body will cause an issue for some people.
Take B Vitamins with it. I took Methyl Protect to ensure no nerve damage per my LLMD. Good luck!

I agree with desertwind, make sure you avoid all alcohol including mouthwash etc.
