• Drugs affecting liver enzyme activity: The simultaneous administration of drugs that induce microsomal liver enzymes such as phenytoin or phenobarbital may accelerate the elimination of metronidazole resulting in reduced plasma levels. The simultaneous administration of drugs that decrease microsomal liver enzyme activity such as cimetidine may prolong the half-life and decrease plasma clearance of metronidazole.
• Alcohol: Alcoholic beverages should not be consumed during metronidazole therapy and for at least one day afterwards because abdominal cramps nausea vomiting headaches and flushing may occur.
• Pregnancy: The drug should be avoided during pregnancy particularly during the first trimester.
• Nursing Mothers: Metronidazole is secreted in breast milk. The drug should be avoided by nursing mothers.
