No you should not take alcohol while you are on Flagyl 400 and even after 3 days of this medicine as it has some unpleasant side effects such as fast heart beat , warmth or redness under the skin, nausea , vomiting .

I would rather suggest you not to as alcohol and flagyl(metronidazole) will have serious interactions.
