Reply To: Allergic to metronidazole. What else is there?

There is another drug in the same family that is commonly used, and some people tolerate one and not the other. That is the first thing a clinician will consider.

Where there is a true allergy to the class, there is a supervised desensitisation route, done by specialists rather than at a routine appointment.
