Experiencing Oral Thrush, Nausea And Diarrhea. Could It Be Caused Due To The Overdose Of Metrogyl?

I've been taking Ibiliex and metrogyl 400 x 3 per day each for 6 days for a tooth abscess. Subsequently had a wisdom tooth out three days ago. Infection appears to be gone and no evidence of dry root.

I do, however, now have oral thrush, nausea and diarrhea. Could I be experiencing overdose of metrogyl ?

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
As you are mentioning that you were taking metrogyl and now you are experiencing nausea and diarrhea, yes it can be possible that because of metrogyl you are experiencing this.
But it does not causes oral thrush , it can be possible that because of infection you were not able to clean your , mouth and now it has caused oral thrush.
Better that you should stop taking medication now and visit your dentist for gollow up.
Hope it will help you.
