HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Side effects can potentially occur as a result of using any medication. Metronidazole can cause gastrointestinal upset, headache, dizziness, nausea.It could be contributing to these symptoms.
It is not usually associated with difficulty breathing however.
You may want to consider taking the medication at least till you can see the dentist in the am. He may recommend alternative medication at that time.
I hope this helps
