Brief Answer:
Never take ornidazole tablet and alcohol together.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail. It is understood you are asking about ORNIDAZOLE oral tablets which is an antibiotic used to treat infections.

Please never take ornidazole oral tablets and alcohol together.

Do not drink alcohol while you are taking ornidazole tablets and for at least 3 days after you stop taking it. You may have unpleasant side effects such as fast heartbeats, warmth or redness under your skin, tingly feeling, nausea, and vomiting.

This can cause a serious health problem.

If you are taking ornidazole in ointment for local application then there is no serious problem.

Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Regards,
Dr.Vivek
