Question by PlasticTrees: My medication says not to drink alcohol while taking it. What would happen if I did?
It’s for a vaginal bacteria infection. I take 2 of these pills a day for a week. The med is called metronidazole. I started taking it yesterday. My friend is having a party tonight and I’d like to know if a few drinks would mess up my recovery.
