Serious side effects include seizures and damage of nerves resulting in numbness and tingling of extremities (peripheral neuropathy). Metronidazole should be stopped if these symptoms appear." |
Yes she was on Metronidazole, the vet said she was on safe dosages and it shouldn't have had an effect on her. I will bring this up with her again.
