I first started feeling itchy a day after taking it but thought it was just dry skin. I didn't notice any bumps until the 6th day into the medication so I discontinued and had planned to call the nurse the next morning. When I woke up I was covered from head to toe. These bumps looked like the measels and I called the nurse paniced and was told to immediately go to ER.
I ended up go to urgent care instead and was given a steriod shot and 2 other medications. The hives were gone in 2 days.

What did the ER doctor say caused the bumps and itching?

Bactrim is an antibiotic and it is commonly used to prevent or treat infections.

However, if the bumps, stinging and itching were caused by an allergic reaction to something, then this will not treat that.

In addition, it can cause a non-allergic skin rash as a side effect.
