I was prescribed sulfamethoazole-TMP DS T. It went to different pharmacy than I usually use and the price exceptionally for a sulfa-base drug. What should it cost withour a co-pay? ## Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim is an antibiotic, they are the active ingredients in Bactrim, it is used to treat various types of infections. The price will vary depending on the pharmacy and location, so I can really only give you a rough estimate, but for the DS generic tabs, 30 of them is usually around $90, before any insurance coverage. Is there anything else I can help with?

shape oval color white imprint ip 272 ## I recently took this one of these pills yesterday morning. By noon I started to have a headache and by the afternoon I had a migraine type of headache along with blood shot red eyes and light pink color to my skin. The next morning the symptoms are still here along with some aching pains in my muscles. My eyes are still red and they are slightly puffy.

kidney infection ## This is a combo antibiotic, commonly used for those types of infections. Sulfamethoxazole Info Click Here ## I am a spinal cord injury (SCI) and my SCI doctor has had me on this drug for 10 yesrs since my accident. It prevents Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), because I self-cath up to 8 times a day. I have not noticed any side effects other than an occasional yeast infection. Every couple months or so, I will stop taking it for a week or two just to give my system a break and so I do not build up a tolerance to it. However, if I stay off too long, I usually end up getting a UTI which then must be treated by a stronger antibiotic. This sulfa drug is considered a maintenance drug and I take it once a day. I'd be happy to answer any other questions you have. ## Grea...

Hey I have a boil on the left side of my buttocks and its almost ready to burst can I take this pill now while its almost there?. The pill is pretty big and white I'm 23 it kind of scared me. Should I take half of it first or just the whole thing? How long do I take these pills? ## You should only take it, if your doctor has directed you to do so, if not, then it may not be the right medication to treat whatever has caused this issue, or you may not have enough of it to fully eradicate the infectious bacteria, which creates the risk of your developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. Has the boil been cultured?

I would like to take Excedrin for a headache to today. Can I take w the above drug. If not, what could I take? ## Hello, Jonsey! How are you? Actually, the FDA cautions against combining the Aspirin in the Excedrin with this antibiotic, because they can increase the efficacy of each other, which may be dangerous, in some cases, due to the fact that they could reach toxic overdose levels. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia, and stomach irritation. What has your doctor advised?

My mom started this med on 11/28. Today 11/29, her legs felt week and the dr said it is unlikely the med I gave her tonight and I am worried to death. I am afraid something might happen cuz of this med. ## That might be a side effect of the medication, according to the FDA, she may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. It is usually nothing to worry about and things should go away, a week or so, after she finishes her course of treatment. However, if it becomes severe, or dangerous, it would be best to consult her doctor, again. Is she on any other medications?

I AM TAKING AMOXICILLIN FOR UTI. 875 MG TABLETS.ONE EVERY 12 HOURS. I NEED TO CHANGE TO SULAMETHOXAZOLE-TMP. CAN I SUB SULFAMETHOXAZOLE WHEN IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TIME TO TAKE AMOX? ## Hi Roy, The answer to your question is yes, as long as you're still sticking to your dosing regimen. A friend of mine had to take both of these medications at once for a staph infection, so I know they don't necessarily interact with one another in that regard. I hope this helps!
