Old thread title = Is it safe to consume vinegar whilst taking metronidazole?
New thread title = Since vinegar is made from alcohol, should it be avoided with medication?


It says in the instructions for the medication that I'm taking 'metronidazole' that I have to completely avoid alcohol. The pharmacist also warned me before leaving the chemist that I shouldn't consume any alcohol whilst taking the medication, even in small amounts, otherwise it may make me ill.

Since vinegar is made from alcohol, does that mean I have to avoid it too, or is vinegar safe to consume?
