| Comments: | | I took this once a day for eight days for a vaginal bacterial infection. I only had slight side effects of an upset stomach after taking the pill; probably because I had not eaten much on those days. My infection cleared up noticably before the treatement was through. I feel it was very effective. |

| Other conditions: | | none |

Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | not worth the cost of the side effects. Becasue I was so miserable, I discontinued the medication early and opted for a more conventional anti-biotic. |
| Side effects: | | nausea, upset stomach, insomnia, and a general feeling sick. I felt like I was going to throw up if I so much as drank water, I got very tired and week but could not sleep due to constant dry heaving. |
| Comments: | | I was told to take it so I did. the more I took the more miserable I got, until I called my doctor and said, I can not take this. I dont know if I am alergic or what but I cant and I wont take any more of it. it still took almost two days for the side effects to go away. |
