NISHASMOM: I read something with regards to FLAGYL and the liver as well.
Metronidazole and possible liver damage
Question: Have you ever heard of Flagyl affecting the liver enzyme levels?
Answer: Metronidazole (Flagyl Rx) is metabolized primarily by the liver. It
sometimes causes liver damage or makes existing liver damage worse. This is
thought to be a reversible effect which usually will resolve with
withdrawal of the medication.
