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.
