Question:
I have been taking Flagyl for Diverticulitis and am still experiencing
some side affects though I have been off the drug for 3 weeks. Does
anyone know how to get rid of the metallic taste that comes with
taking flagyl?

Answer:
Hey Susan, how are you doing? Yes. A sharp, unpleasant metallic
taste is not unusual. However, according to Pfizer, Flagly, Drug
Information Sheet, you should check with your doctor if any of the
following side effects continue or are bothersome. This could be a
sign of a serious medical disease. * change in taste sensation *
dryness of mouth * unpleasant or sharp metallic taste For
