Smz Tmp Ds 800 160 Problemsv
UpdatedI started feeling sick last week, but thought nothing of it. Went to the dr on Wed. and up until then I had no fevers. Was prescribed SMZ/TMP. She really couldn't diagnose me at that time. I started it Wed. night. Went back to work on Thurs. and had to leave mid morning. I could barely stand up straight. I kept doubling over. By the time I got home fever of 103. Still on med, but continue to get fevers of low grade. Continue to double over. My urine is dark yellow, almost orange. Is that because of the med?

I had similar symptoms when taking it and it turned out to be a bad reaction that only got worse, when I didn't connect it to the antibiotic right away.

I strongly encourage you to contact your doctor immediately for an alternative medication. It made my severely dehydrated, stomach and abdominal pain, dizzy, my kidney function dropped to the point of failure and then I developed a severe allergic rash, before I finally put 2 and 2 together.
These sulfa antibiotics just don't agree with some people and when you have these types of reactions, it can be dangerous to try to continue taking them.
How are you feeling now?
