My boyfriend have a bad tooth ack pain and he want some of my sulfame/trimethoprim will that help it until he go to the dentist on the 15 ## Hello, Tana! How is your boyfriend doing? This is an antibiotic, so it is only effective at treating bacterial infections, it will not relieve the pain he's experiencing. It's also best not to take it, if it hasn't been prescribed for him, because it creates the risk of his developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. Side effects to this medication may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

Was prescribed sulfameth/trimethoprim 800/160 for infection in thumb. Was to take it for 10 days but on 8 day developed an itchy rash - should I continue to take it. I am not allergic to any medications. Can I take benadryl to help? ## No, once you get the itchy rash from this it means that most likely you are allergic to it and things will only get worse if you continue taking it and there is the risk of your developing much more dangerous reactions. Learn more Bactrim details here. Benadryl may help in the meantime, until it starts to clear up, if it's safe for you to take it. But you also need to contact your doctor and let them know, they may wish to prescribe an alternative antibiotic. Learn more Benadryl details here.

My 2 children who have Cystic Fibrosis were put on sulfameth-trimeth for 21 days at 18.5 ml twice daily, they both weigh around 30-33 lbs! Why would they be put on such a high dose for so long ? ## According to nih.gov, "People with cystic fibrosis may take antibiotics only when needed, or all the time. Doses are usually higher than normal." Ref: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001167/#adam_000107.disease.treatment Although this is just my theory, it could be that their doctor also felt that the severity of the condition alarmed him enough to increase the duration of that dose. But ultimately you'd have to ask the doctor who prescribed it for a more valid answer.

Is used to clear up rashes cause all im reading is side effects are rashes. how do u give someone something that is suppost to clear rashes that causes rashes.. i guess i dont get it. ## Sulfamthoxazole with Trimethoprim, the active ingredients in Bactrim, is an antibiotic, it is used to treat various types of infections. This means that the only way it will help clear up a rash, is if that rash is caused by an infection. And yes, it can cause a non-allergic skin rash as a side effect, however, these are usually very mild and they will go away, a few days after you finish your prescribed course of the medication. Additionally, not everyone experienced the side effects of any given medication, so you may not get a rash from it, at all. Are there any other questions?
