Can I Take HCG Diet Drops Along With Metronidazole And Tetracycline?
I am taking metronidazol 500 mg 3X's a day along with tetracycline 500 mg 4x's aday and omeprazole 20mg 2x's a day for h.pylori. My question is, can i still take the hcg diet drops with these meds? My hcg diet drops are 12X,30X,60X hcg and 20% U.S.P. alcohol, and i take 10 drops 3x's a day. My hcg booster is 49% organic grape alcohol and i take 15 drops 2x's a day. are these amounts of alcohol enough to affect the metronidazol ?
