Metronidazole is the most common antibiotic prescribed for dogs with diarrhea caused by an E. coli overgrowth, but studies have shown that metronidazole is not effective against E. coli. In fact, this study found a significant association between the use of metronidazole and a greater abundance of E. coli in dogs.

This suggested that metronidazole was active against coliforms in vivo, despite in vitro resistance. Using an intraperitoneal challenge of E. coli plus Bacteroides fragilis or E. coli alone, metronidazole treatment reduced mortality rates, but only in animals which received E. coli plus B. fragilis.
