Is Sulfamethoxazole effective at treating an infected tattoo? I have an infected tattoo and was prescribed Sulfamethoxazole and wanted to know if anyone else has had the same experience and was prescribed Sulfamethoxazole?

This is an antibiotic that can be used to treat various types of infections.

The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

How are you doing? I hope your tattoo doesn't become damaged.

I am doing ok. My tattoo will suffer some damage but my tattoo artist says they will touch up the damage after the healing process has taken place.
