Septra & Anemia

Updated

I was perscribed this medication for an extreme case of impetigo and scarlet fever, along with a topical medication. I was completly unaware of the side effects of the medication and the interactions. I am anemic, and have been experiencing many of the side effects that this medication can cause, but I am worried about what could possibly happen because of my anemia (its actually iorn & folic acid deficient) does anyone know what can result from taking this medication with this condition? any help is greatly appreciated.....
