Mixing metronidazole and alcohol can cause nausea, vomiting, flushing, headache and stomach pain. And yes it can reduce the the effectiveness of the antibiotic. Drinking while taking this made me violently ill. I wouldn't recommend it.
You cannot drink alcohol whilst taking this particular antibiotic - you will feel ill and its effectiveness will be reduced.
