Flagyl, or Metronizadole is an antifungal medication given to eradicate yeast
overgrowth after receiving antibiotics. She probably had antibiotics before
during and after the surgery and now is having to take the drug you mentioned.
some MDs even give it prophylactically along with the other antibiotics. It
like anything else has side effects and interactions but I don't think the CS
will interact with anything. I have never had a problem with CS killing good
bacteria and I don't ever recall anyone on the list raise any more than a
passing concern about this.

Subject: CS>question
I have a dear friend who has been diagnosed with Clostridium Difficile or
C-Diff. She has been prescribed Metronidazole to kill the bacteria. I have
given her two quarts of freshly made CS today with a strength of 12 ppm's. Her
question is how much should she take? Will it interact/react with the
Metronidazole?
Will the CS kill any of the good bacteria she has been trying to replace
with probiotics?
This appeared after she had a colonoscopy. Apparently she picked up this
bacteria after the procedure. She is having a very difficult time recovering
and the Metronidazole is acting like chemo and making her extremely ill.
All suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.
