What Is Purbac Antibiotic Used

Can purbac be used at the same time with co-amoxyclav 625 ## I've started taking Purbac for bladder infection. I'm on warfari, Carloc, amlodopinine, pharmapress blood pressure meds and epilum. It is my third day on Purbac and I feel though a fever wants to break through and my stomach is bloated and painful. Please advise. Regards ## Hello, Tebo! How are you? Yes and they are sometimes prescribed together to treat particularly severe infections. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this antibiotic as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Margaret, this antibiotic can sometimes cause those types of symptoms. They should go away a week, or so, after you finish your course of treatment. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have bronchiactisis a lung condition. I have been using purbac for almost 6 months and really feel good after years of other antibiotics. Are there side effects on the long term for using perbac. This is the only antibiotic I use. ## The dose and length of time you have to take Purbac will depend on the type of infection you have. The problem with using any antibiotic a lot or for long-term is that resistant strains of bacteria eventually develop and then the antibiotic is no longer as effective. As far as any side effects go, Purbac (Sulfamethoxazole + Trimethoprim) unfortunately has a generous list of them: Allergic - Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, anaphylaxis, allergic myocarditis, erythema multiforme, exfoliative dermatitis, angiodema, drug fever, chills, He...

My dr prescribed Purbac Ds 950 mg tabs, but the tab the chemist gave to me does not look like the correct tablet, as there is the word C24 engraved on the tab. Is this the right one or not? ## In my investigation, neither Purbac Adult, Purbac DS or Purbac Paediatric suspension are available in 950mg dosage forms. The manufacturer ("Pharmacare Limited") only lists 40mg/200mg; 80mg/400mg; 160mg/800mg - not to mention, 950mg would only represent one of the two active ingredients in Purbac (Trimethoprim/Sulphamethoxazole). To ensure that you received the appropriate medication, I would encourage you to contact the chemist where you got it from. Was your dosage custom made/tailored by your doctor to meet your own unique set of circumstances? I am also not finding any reliable data on...

hi, can i take purbac d.s. for a tooth infection ## Purbac DS contains the active ingredients Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim, it is an antibiotic that's used to treat various types of infections. And it can be used for a dental infection, but the relevant question is: Was it prescribe to treat this dental infection? If not and you just have some left over from a prior prescription, you may run into problems if you don't have enough to completely eradicate the infection, because you run the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. On top of that, a dental infection does require proper follow up treatment from a dentist to fix the underlying issue that has caused it, or there is a high likelihood that it will just recur.

Everytime I get flu I use purbac as it helps with my cough otherwise if I take a cough mixture I develop bronchitis. I been hiv positive for 23 years now.

Hi I have been taking Purbac, Aluvia, Tremoc and Activio vitamin for 3 years. My new doctor stop prescribing it upon seeing my CD4 account of 575. I have experienced extreme weight gain and night sweats around my neck and face even during the day. My husband has also gained belly fat since stopping it he's also been on purbac. Thanks ## Purbac is an antibiotic, it contains Sulfamethoxazole, and Trimethoprim, it is most commonly used to treat bacterial infections. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash, diarrhea, and headache. Weight gain is not a normal side effect. How are you feeling, now? Has there been any change? How old are you both of you? There is a chance that these issues could be due to just normal aging.
