    sounds like you may be having an allergic reaction or the medication is just too strong I have had the same problem I have BV and was prescribed metronidazole and Doxycycline for both of these medications I had to take twice a day for 10 days however I noticed they changed on day five and now today is day seven and I have decided to stop taking the metronidazole but I’m still gonna still take the Doxy
