On Flagyl For BV, Tested Negative For STDs, Still Have Smelly Discharge. Douched With Vinegar. Will Flagyl Be Ineffective ?

I am currently taking Flagyl 500mg po bid for BV. I was tested for all STD's and results were negative. Half way through tx I still had a smelly discharge so I douched once with a OTC vinegar douche. Will this make my tx less effective and will I have to restart my course of Flagyl? I have 6 doses left of a 14 dose supply.
