Sulfa Drugs List

Updated

I am allergic to sulphonamides in antibotic - when I took trimethoprim I got Stevens Johnson Syndrome. I went in hospitla yesterday. Was given morphine for pain and then co-codamol. Last night I felt very sick and dizzy and was kept in hospital this morning an hour an a half after taking more co-codamol i sat up in bed and had all the symptoms of passing out but didn't go fully. My heart was pounding etc. Could there be a link to my allergy as my skin has been itching and my arm burning but not rash as yet. I stopped taking them - doctor withdrew them.

Hello, Vaness! How are you?

I'm not a doctor, but I'm more inclined to think that what you experienced were just side effects from the narcotics. Everything you've listed, including the itching, are known possible side effects as listed by the FDA. They also carry the risk of being habit forming.

Had you ever been on narcotics before? If not, then it would be normal to experience the side effects more intensely.
