Can I use milk with Flagyl?

Published in Medication Instructions 1 min read

Yes, you can use milk with Flagyl. In fact, taking Flagyl (metronidazole) with milk is one way to help prevent stomach upset.

Here's a breakdown:

  • Purpose: Taking Flagyl with food, water, or milk is recommended to minimize stomach irritation, a common side effect.
  • How to Take It: Follow your doctor's instructions precisely on how to take Flagyl. If you are using the suspension form, make sure to shake the bottle well before each dose.

So, drinking a full glass of milk when taking Flagyl is an acceptable and potentially beneficial way to take the medication.
