<<I'm not sure I'd take flagyl for diarrhea without a specific diagnosis.

When I took it for giardia, it made me very nauseous and I was vomiting for days. According to my Doctor at the time, these are fairly common side effects. I was not sure which was worse, the giardia or the cure!>>

And remember you can't drink alcohol while you are on it!  A true disadvantage if you are in a place where you shouldn't drink the water.
