I've taken Flagyl for c-diff(which a pretty serious GI problem). It gave me terrible thrush in my mouth and had to then use Nystatin to get rid of it. I think it took about 2 weeks for it to get out of my mouth. It did relieve my c-diff symptoms but only temporarily. I had to then go on one of the "big guns" called Vancomycin. That cleared it up for me.
Both my mom and my friend have used Flagyl for Diverticulitis. I don't believe either of them suffered any thrush issues but I think it does leave a terrible taste in your mouth if I remember correctly.
Hope this helps.

My dog just had a week of Flagyl for diarrhea. The vet made me promise to give him yogurt with active cultures (probiotic treatment) for after, so his system would stabilize correctly.

He's been doing great. No more loose stools or urgency. (Wish it were that easy for me!!!)
