    Where can I buy this stuff in the pill form? Tried to get today at two different pharmacies and was told I needed a prescription.

    The only Metronidazole that you will be able to obtain without a prescription is a Seachem product and that is in a powder form. For the rest you do need a script.

    Just as a note: Flagyl is the liquid form of this pill. If you're ever looking for the tablet, ask for Metronidazol or Bemetrazol.

    I used it for white spot, cleared it right up, good stuff, I believe you can use for parasitic or bacterial infections
