Ive been on sulfameth/trimethoprim for 3 days now 1pill every 12 hours until all gone.since taking the pills I have been urinating a lot 30mins apart im also taking metronidazole500MG both to treat a boil also bacteria infection. Is it normal to urinate this much. .no burning during urination all just clear like water. ## The Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim is the most likely culprit, Sulfa by itself was used to treat urinary tract infections, before some many other antibiotics were available on the market, because it can kill bacteria and increase urinary output to help cleanse the kidneys and urinary tract. That said, this also means that it's very easy to get dehydrated while you're taking this medication, so unless its contraindicated for you medically, you may want to in...

I'm finishing a 7 day, 3 X a day, 500 mg dose of flagyl/metronidazole because I was having pain under the right side of my ribs, abdominal tenderness and I have a lump on the right side of my back which the doc said was muscular. My worst symptoms of the meds were some unsteadiness and abdominal pains (I didn't call my Dr.), now I'm having a few headaches. Does it cause brain cancer, because I read it is carcinogenic? ## If it did cause such an issue, it would not occur that fast. Cancer is generally slow growing. It is most likely just due to the side effects of the medication, which the FDA does list as including headaches, along with nausea, dizziness, diarrhea, and stomach pain. However, it never hurts to have such an issue checked out by your doctor to be sure. Are you ...

I supposed to have my period again by 08/12/17 but until now my period is not showing up. I got a heavy discharge for few days and now I am suffering for lower abdominal cramps.

antibiotic? prescribed for bacterial infection ## Yes, Flagyl is an antibiotic prescribed for this reason. ## I took flagyl for 4 days after a bad reaction (stomach pain, mucus in bowel movements) to Ceftin. I was supposed to take the flagyl for 7 days but couldn't tolerate the nausea, etc. It has been a week since I stopped the Flagyl and my symptoms from the Ceftin are returning. Is there anything over the counter I can take to remedy this? I don't want to take the flagyl again if I can help it. ## I took Flagyl on Sunday and on that same day I had unprotected intercourse... Does Flagyl affect one's ability to conceive? Please help. I am worried. ## They are both the same thing, Metronidazole is just the active ingredient in Flagyl. The FDA lists its typical side effects a...
