Cases of severe liver toxicity/acute liver failure, including cases with a fatal outcome, in patients with Cockayne syndrome have been reported with metronidazole. If you are affected by Cockayne syndrome, your doctor should also monitor your liver function frequently while you are being treated with metronidazole and afterwards. Serious skin reactions including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) have been reported with the use of metronidazole. • SJS/TEN can appear initially as reddish target-like spots or circular patches often with central blisters on the trunk. Also, ulcers of the mouth, throat, nose, genitals and eyes (red and swollen eyes) can occur.These serious skin rashes are often preceded by fever and/or flu-like symptoms. The rashes may progress to widespread peeling of the skin and life-threatening complications or be fatal. • AGEP appears at the initiation of treatment as a red, scaly widespread rash with bumps under the skin and blisters accompanied by fever. The most common location: mainly localised on the skin folds, trunk, and upper extremities. The highest risk for occurrence of serious skin reactions is within one week, typically, within 48 hours after start of treatment.

This includes medicines obtained without a prescription, including herbal medicines. This is because Metronidazole can affect the way some other medicines work. Also, some other medicines can affect the way Metronidazole works. In particular, tell your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines: • Anti-coagulants (blood thinning agents), such as warfarin. The dosage of warfarin may need to be reduced when you are taking this drug. • Lithium for mental illness. If taken at the same time as metronidazole, the kidneys may be affected. • Medicines used to treat epilepsy,such as phenytoin, primidone, phenobarbital • 5 fluorouracil for cancer • Busulfan for leukaemia (cancer of the blood cells) • Ciclosporin – to prevent the rejection of organs after transplant • Disulfiram for alcoholism If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking metronidazole.
