What Must I Do About Severe Anxiety When I Am Taking Metronidazole For Bacterial Vaginitis?
Hello, I am taking metronidazole for Bacterial Vaginitis. I am having terrible anxiety as a side effect. I am not a regular mariuana user but my husband suggested it might help calm my anxiety and it helped. Will marijuana interact with metronidazole? Will the medication become less effective? Thank you

Hi,
Metronidazole is less likely to interact with Marijuana. Still, it's not a fair deal to get habituated with Marijuana in order to get rid of anxiety. It's not due to Metronidazole.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
